It sounds like Fedora's dtc package is broken then -- are you
going to fix it?

...I don't have an objection to this if we can make it
work for all versions of libfdt, and if it's a way of
using libfdt that upstream expects and is happy to support.

Mostly I'd just like it to be clear how upstream expects us
to use libfdt and how upstream expects distributions to
package libfdt, and then make sure we're in line with that.
It seems like a lot of the problem is that people (us and
distros) have been guessing in the absence of documentation :-(
