My error report is as follows.

dwarfsrcfiles checks .a files during the package process.
Whether using LTO or not, DWARF information is extracted by iterating through
.o files inside .a files.
However, they must be ELF objects.
To summarize, it is as follows.
The problem is that when using clang + LTO, the .o files are not ELF but LLVM
IR bitcode.
