RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

In the case of 0%{?centos} >= 8, the elfutils configure can activate
 
   --enable-debuginfod-urls=https://debuginfod.centos.org/

(I'm still just chewing through HOW to contribute this to centos-stream [8].)

Note that you also need a conditional around the following elfutils.spec hunk:

# We don't have standard DEBUGINFOD_URLS yet.
rm ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_sysconfdir}/profile.d/debuginfod.sh
rm ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}%{_sysconfdir}/profile.d/debuginfod.csh

As long as it is conditionalized with 0%{?centos} >= 8 this should be fine for centos without it appearing in rhel.

But I do think we have to double check at least gdb works correct, there have been some usability nits (and patches that fix them) in the gdb fedora package that I am not sure are in the centos packages yet.

A 0.186-2 update of elfutils with this configuration is now awaiting export to the git.centos.org build system.  (No RHEL8 build is being created, and thus this BZ should probably be closed as CLOSED/CURRENTRELEASE or something to avoid it being included in a RHEL errata by mistake.)
