Version     : 0.131
Release     : 1.fc7
URL         : []
Summary     : A collection of utilities and DSOs to handle compiled objects
Description :
Elfutils is a collection of utilities, including ld (a linker),
nm (for listing symbols from object files), size (for listing the
section sizes of an object or archive file), strip (for discarding
symbols), readelf (to see the raw ELF file structures), and elflint
(to check for well-formed ELF files).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update adds several improvements to the eu-readelf and eu-elflint utilities, and bug fixes in the libdw and libdwfl libraries.  It also adds improvements to libdwfl providing more comprehensive treatment of relocatable files, direct support for build IDs and for offline debug archives, and adds the eu-make-debug-archive script for use with this.
