Reporting issue with SSDM & llvm-libs

Not sure what category to put this under, but I managed to narrow down a package conflict with Plasma and llvm-libs. I am just submitting my fix so its available for others.

My system:
EOS VMware VM
KDE Plasma DM

The issue is after boot the login screen never appears and in my vm I can activate the screen enough to switch tty and see the system is live.

Using journalctl -b I was able to see that sddm-greeter-qt core dumped with the error:
Could not initialize GLX.

After some trial and error of narrowing down what package was causing the error I managed to land on it being llvm-libs. Was able to reproduce the behavior by simply swapping the package version.
The current(problem) version available: 20.1.6-3
Newest working downgrade: 20.1.6-2

Thanks for your investigation. I was stuck in it too. Finally, I downgraded llvm-libs to 20.1.6-2 to get back to live.

Thanks bro
