Gregory, All,

On 2014-08-28 14:21 +0200, Gregory CLEMENT spake thusly:
> The elfutils package provides a more recent version of the
> libelf. Some packages such as ltrace need this more recent
> version. Having two packages providing the same library leads to some
> conflicts or dependency problems. For instance at the end we had only
> one libelf.a when the 2 packages were selected.

Sorry for the delay for that last review...

Yann E. MORIN.
