It shouldn't be a merge request anyway, kernel-5.9.0-300 has

with ark. It is based on the F32 spec, with most of the RHELisms
stripped out. Anything relating to the build of kernel-tools is
bitrot because Fedora doesn't build kernel-tools from the kernel srpm
or kernel.spec. This will likely change with the 5.10 rebases as we
move to a src-git model, though still entirely possible that stable
updates will fail on tools because we just don't build it.
kernel-tools.spec is the appropriate place to build gpio-watch in
Fedora.
OK, I only mentioned it because the last 5.9 development kernel didn't
have the issue. From what you say above I think that is because
development kernels and stable kernels use different spec files, right?
I like to update everything in synch, kernel, headers, tools, etc.
whether they need it or not. I guess I'll have to start building them
separately from the src.rpms if the kernel spec gets too out of date.
Thanks.
