Dear Maintainer, your package has an open Fails To Build From Source bug for Fedora 35. 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. If you have already fixed this issue, please close this Bugzilla report. Following the policy for such packages [2], your package will be orphaned if this bug remains in NEW state more than 8 weeks (not sooner than 2021-09-23). A week before the mass branching of Fedora 36 according to the schedule [3], any packages not successfully rebuilt at least on Fedora 34 will be retired regardless of the status of this bug.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 35 development cycle. Changing version to 35.
I am both maintainer and upstream developer on the DMTCP project. For anyone reading this, we have been actively working on the fix to DMTCP for Fedora 35. The issue is that Fedora 35 adopted glibc-2.34. And glibc-2.34 changed its implementation of pthread_create to depend on clone3, instead of clone. glibc-2.34 itself had been released only on Aug. 10. Because DMTCP acts as middleware between the application and glibc/kernel, we have been forced to make significant changes in the low-level design of DMTCP's support for threads. We expect that work to be finished this week, and to update the DMTCP package then.
And dmtcp-2.6.1~rc2 now fixes the bug. We did this only for x86_64 so far. We can restore support for aarch64 later, by doing a careful workaround for the new design of glibc-2.34.
