I got it building and posted a PR: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/splint/pull-request/1 The upstream project went dormant in 2010, but there are some other semi-active forks.

The program itself could be useful for research and just as another tool in the toolbox for development. -- David Cantrell <dcantr...@redhat.com> Red Hat, Inc. | Boston, MA | EST5EDT -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
