      The <application>SPIRV-LLVM-Translator</application> package contains a
      library and utility for converting between LLVM IR and SPIR-V code.
      This package currently only supports the OpenCL/Compute version of SPIR-V.

    <para>
      <parameter>-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON</parameter>: This parameter forces
      building shared versions of the libraries.
    </para>

    <xi:include xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"

    <para>
      <parameter>-DLLVM_EXTERNAL_SPIRV_HEADERS_SOURCE=/usr</parameter>: This
      parameter allows the build system to use the version of SPIRV-Headers
      that was installed with SPIRV-Tools, instead of redownloading an
      unncessary copy of the headers.
