You have been subscribed to a public bug by Frank Heimes (fheimes):

The DPC++ compiler is a LLVM-based compiler project that implements
compiler and runtime support for the SYCL* language. We have worked with
Intel to create and test this compiler in a PPA (linked below).

[needs-packaging] intel-dpcpp

Upstream: https://github.com/intel/llvm
Upstream branch: sycl
Upstream tag: v6.2.0
License: Apache 2.0
Target OS Release: 25.10 (Questing)
PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kobuk-team/+archive/ubuntu/oneapi-release?field.series_filter=questing
Source package in PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kobuk-team/+archive/ubuntu/oneapi-release/+sourcepub/17790840/+listing-archive-extra
Source package in GitHub: https://github.com/canonical/oneapi-packaging/tree/main/compiler

Note I will submit separate bugs to add two build-time dependencies for
the compiler, and one runtime dependency. In addition, note that to
create a stable build we vendored two build dependencies described
below.

intel-vc-intrinsics for these reasons:
- We need the source for in-tree build of the compiler
- The intel-vc-intrinsics debian package only includes headers
- The intel-vc-intrinsics debian package depends on an old version of llvm, creating a conflict with the intel-dpcpp package

Intel compute runtime level-zero headers for these reasons:
- The compiler requires a very specific version of the headers
- Headers enable experimental features not included in the level-zero API and are only meant to be consumed by the DPC++ compiler at build-time
- More background and discussion: https://github.com/intel/llvm/issues/20318
