Thanks. I had to make one small adjustment, rpmbuild in rawhide doesn't
accept the depsuffix on an Obsoletes. It is unnecessary anyway (it is
required on the Requires, because the libraries are multilib).

I have now build elfutils-0.180-5 which drops the -static packages in
rawhide. This should only affect the kexec-tools (the maintainers are
aware of the BuildRequires change necessary). But if there is any other
fallout please yell and scream.

BTW. Can Obsoletes ever be removed? We have an Obsoletes: libelf <=
0.8.2-2 on elfutils-libelf since the original cvsdist import of 2004
because there used to be a different libelf implementation (with a dead
upstream these days). Can I remove that? Or is it better to keep it
"just in case"?

Thanks,

Mrk
