[Xen-devel] [OSSTEST PATCH] ts-xen-build-prep: Install libelf-dev for benefit of linux.git



Linux upstream has started needing libelf-dev.  Without it, recent tip
fails (in our configuration) like this:

 Makefile:938: *** "Cannot generate ORC metadata for CONFIG_UNWINDER_ORC=y, 
please install libelf-dev, libelf-devel or elfutils-libelf-devel".  Stop.

It is not clear exactly when this requirement was introduced.  Our
bisector said:
  Bug introduced:  91a6a6cfee8ad34ea4cc10a54c0765edfe437cdb
  Bug not present: 1c9dbd4615fd751e5e0b99807a3c7c8612e28e20
but the "introduced" commit is a merge of a large branch, so it's not
blaming a specific commit.  None of the commits in that range mention
libelf so the most likely reason is a consequence of a change to some
configuration interactions (ie, probably, an expansion of the scope of
an existing dependency).
