How do I inform the ports > that they may *only* use the version(s) in base? In general you can't. There are many reasons including: the base llvm doesn't include the requisite cmake bits for cmake based ports, some ports use unstable APIs and require specific LLVM versions, and some use LLVM tools or libraries that aren't built/installed as part of the base system. There are probably some ports where the base clang is fine but that's probably mostly down to someone getting USES variables right. -- Brooks
