llvm-amdgpu-lib-snapshot required by nouveau-dri?

Hello,

I'm using nouveau for my NVIDIA card. Why does it pul in said package which is described as:
"Low Level Virtual Machine with AMDGPU enabled to build r600g shader llvm support"

It's also required by mesa, which I kind of can understand but nouveau?

Kind Regards,

I don't know, but probably because mesa is built with --with-llvm-shared-libs now and it requires llvm 3.3. And the snapshot is already 3.3, AMDGPU enabled or not, so why not use it?
