Maybe it will solve battleblock theater locking up my whole session, for instance?

Well the same happen to me with Arch, so far this lock up random is part of amdgpu that the video card need to restart so make all the system hang up so far I check when I receive those lockup. Well also Steam recommend if you are using mesa, that we use the version 7+ and if you are using proton. So far with the updates I receive less lockup.
I believe in two day this package will be release. Anyway you always can check on the on the archlinux and search for the package, or check git on the packeage if there update of files meaning they are planing to update soon.

Wonder if they will update the ARCH 6.0.1 release to 7 or just add another llvm to the repo for people to install/overwrite older versions themselves?
