But for other situations where Fedora-created binaries might be run-and crash-this mechanism would allow administrators and tools to recognize where exactly the binary came from. For regular Fedora systems, which normally have the RPM metadata available, there is no large advantage. The facility would be used by the systemd-coredump utility to log package versions when crashes occur. So those binaries will contain information that can tie them directly to the package, even in the absence of RPM metadata on the system. That section will contain a JSON-formatted description of exactly which RPM it was distributed with. The basic idea is that each ELF object that gets created for an RPM package will get a. On October 25, Fedora program manager Ben Cotton posted the proposal to the Fedora devel mailing list it is also available on the wiki. It is part of a multi-distribution effort to standardize how this information is stored in the binaries (and the libraries they use) to assist crash-reporting and other tools. A feature recently proposed for Fedora 36-currently scheduled for the end of April 2022-would embed information into the binaries themselves to show where they came from.

While it is often relatively straightforward to determine what package provided a binary that is misbehaving-crashing for instance-on Fedora and other Linux distributions, there are situations where it may be harder to do so. Adding package information to ELF objects.Somehow Linus had a pretty rough go of it but ultimately they were (mostly) able to complete the first task of their challenge. Never even tried to! With the advent of the Steam Deck, though, Linus has come around to the idea of “Linux Gaming” and challenged his friend Luke to use Linux on their home rigs. LinusTechTips, if you’re not aware, is one of the most popular tech YouTube channels out there… yet somehow, Linus has never daily-driven Linux.
