Package: emscripten Version: 2.0.8~dfsg1-9 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
When building a large C++ project using the current package, the WebAssembly linking might fail with error "emscripten:ERROR: emscript: failure to parse metadata output from wasm-emscripten-finalize". It turns out that such error is a consequence of the fact that Emscripten 2.0.x is expected to be run with LLVM 12. But, the patch "d/patches/2005_older_llvm.patch" allows to run Emscripten with LLVM 11, which might result in incompatibilities. More context is available in the following issue of the upstream project: https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/11895 This issue can be closed once LLVM 12 will land in Debian Sid, once "d/control" is adapted to use version 12 on all LLVM-related packages, and once the "d/patches/2005_older_llvm.patch" is removed.
