elfutils went after http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=221761
I am rather irritated by the incomplete quoting of elfutils sources which trimmed key facts like:
* Wed Jan 7 2004 Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com> 0.91-1 - include only libelf under GPL plus wrapper scriptsor the copyright headers in the source files everywhere proclaiming that they are OSL-covered files. If you read through the %if %{gpl} sections of the spec in the upstream sources, I think you may find that you can build libelf to use binutils. I hope that's some use to you.
However, much of elfutils is still OSL and still non-free. -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know.
