problems with libclang

[Maurizio Cimadamore]

My $0.02 is that the first LLVM bundle you tried was not correct. I had 
this problem myself on 20.04 - e.g. the llvm for 19.04 does not work, as 
it's probably compiled against different libraries.

My recommendation is that you always try, after downloading the 
pre-built binary, to run bin/clang on the downloaded distribution and 
see if that works. In my case that 19.04 download did *not* work.

So, like, you, I had to use a newer one and override the libclang-version.
