From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: The installed library libelf.so.1 is missing a symlink which allows you to compile new programs which link against it. In particular, if I compile a program foo.c, the following will fail: gcc foo.c -lelf A workaround can be done as follows: cd /usr/lib ln -s libelf.so.1 libelf.so ...but it would be much nicer if the RPM for this installed properly in the first place. :-) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): elfutils-libelf-0.95-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora Core 2 2. Try to compile any program that links to libelf with -lelf Actual Results: Compile fails due to missing library. Expected Results: Compile should work. Additional info:
