dwgrep failed to build from source in Fedora rawhide/f32 https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=41316755 For details on the mass rebuild see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_32_Mass_Rebuild Please fix dwgrep at your earliest convenience and set the bug's status to ASSIGNED when you start fixing it. If the bug remains in NEW state for 8 weeks, dwgrep will be orphaned. Before branching of Fedora 33, dwgrep will be retired, if it still fails to build.

Created attachment 1659838 [details] Remove libebl checks from cmake For some reason the cmake file checks whether libebl.a is available, but the build never seems to use it. libebl.a was an internal (static) library which doesn't contain any public usable code. It was removed in elfutils 0.178. This patch simply removes the checks, which makes things build again.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle. Changing version to 32.
Dear Maintainer, your package has not been built successfully in 32. Action is required from you. If you can fix your package to build, perform a build in koji, and either create an update in bodhi, or close this bug without creating an update, if updating is not appropriate [1]. If you are working on a fix, set the status to ASSIGNED to acknowledge this. Following the latest policy for such packages [2], your package will be orphaned if this bug remains in NEW state more than 8 weeks. A week before the mass branching of Fedora 33 according to the schedule [3], any packages not successfully rebuilt at least on Fedora 31 will be retired regardless of the status of this bug.

Gah, I didn't notice your patch and reinvented the same thing :-| I think it's the correct solution as well. I don't remember where the cmake file comes from and whether I added the check for libebl or if it was already there, but dwgrep does not use libebl at all. There is no reason to probe for the library. There are a handful of other small fixes, cmake has some new policy, bison deprecated some directives and GCC warns about return std::move. I have all these patched upstream, hopefully I'll be able to push this to Fedora during the next week.
