Can you let me know which of the elfutils actually matter to use for
bootstrap? i.e. if there's a binutils version of the same name for any
given utility, why not just use the binutils version?
I see that I was missing this tidbit from the SPEC file:
%global _program_prefix eu-
That explains a lot and I'll take care of it in the bootstrap. Also,
though, I'm still interested to know why we'd want e.g. elfutils ar.
Thanks,
Jon.
