Description:
It would be nice if the package had `libclang-cpp.so` and `libclang.so` in the provides so one could depend on the library version (see last paragraph of https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#depends). This would allow avoiding hacks like in https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=reflective-rapidjson to ensure a rebuild of a package hasn't been forgotten. Supposedly the llvm-libs package should be covered as well (although in my use case it is likely sufficient to depend on the clang library).
This task depends upon

Note also the "autodeps" feature in pacman git might (possibly, in the future) render all these sodeps redundant.
