Description Ondrej Dubaj 2021-03-25 12:40:32 UTC
Your package fails to build with the newest upcoming autoconf-2.71, which is part of a wide Fedora change. Please see the attached copr: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/odubaj/autoconf-2.70/packages/. More information about testing your package when building with autoconf available here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Autoconf_271#How_To_Test

Gentle ping.

Hi Ondrej,

  Ooops - sorry, I made a change, but forgot to update the BZ.

  Starting with binutils-2.36.1-8 there is now an explicit "BuildRequires: autoconf = 2.69" which whilst not ideal, should mean that the issue is resolved for now.  I will work with the upstream sources to transition to the new autoconf for the next release.

The build is sucessfull. Closing this issue as resolved. Thanks for you effort!
