The 64-bit libc_malloc_debug.so.0 is in /lib64 and was moved
to the glibc-utils package in Fedora 40, with 2c1b0f0 (Move
memory tracing libraries to glibc-utils, 2024-05-15)¹. The
commit message notes:
On x86_64, glibc-utils will now only contain the 64-bit
version of these libraries but still need the 32-bit
version (in order to support tracing i686 applications).
Therefore, on i686 the libraries remain in the main
glibc package.
If you're interested in installing the various dependencies
needed to run the test suite on Fedora, take a look at the
Fedora git package spec file².
The BuildRequires contain a substantial set of dependencies
which enable as many of the tests as practical to run when
building the packages (I believe more tests are run there
than are run in the git project's CI for most runs,
actually :).
See also the %check section of the test suite for some tests
which are skipped and other comments which might be useful.
