Comment 2 for bug 1700022

Why would emcc from the current version of emscripten, 1.22.1-1build1, installed from the ubuntu synaptic package manager expect LLVM to be at 3.4 when the LLVM versions listed in synaptic are 3.7, 3.8, 3.9 & 4.0? I would presume that emcc would not give an error if I did things correctly. What is not right?
