So it's not clear if there is a bug here.

The problem is the llvmlite upstream is currently release is targeting
llvm-15, which debian removed for being.

Picking up a fix someone else made and updating it I got llvmlite to
build against llvm-19 which is in debian, they helped clean up my fixes
a bit more and suggested a new PR to use.

Updating to 19 is just listed in their
"Continuous Discussin: LLVM update plan"
https://github.com/numba/llvmlite/issues/1048

Ah ok. the regular maintainer for llvmlite M. Zhou responded a bit
after you and it looks like they're willing to update it shortly.

I don't know if llvmlite is a toolchain package, though it also fell
out of testing because the version of llvm it used was removed, so this
package looks to be an improvement over no package.

I don't lot of free time, and was hoping upstream would fix it but
realized we were almost out of time and managed to get the last bits
pushed over the finish line.

Ok. 

I guess my plan is pass the fixes to llvmlite to lumin, then push
numba, see how things build, and then go talk to the release team?
