Hi - > please send a patch to build without libdebuginfod/debuginfod.
For distro bootstrapping purposes, elfutils can be built with a configure option that builds a libmicrohttpd- / libcurl- free set of stub binaries / libraries. That should suffice to be able to build the buildroot of the distro. Once the bootstrap phase is completed though, users will want the debuginfod client & server capability. Debian users can use our env DEBUGINFOD_URLS=https://debuginfod.elfutils.org/ server, which is already being seeded with some Debian content. - FChE
