Description Ben Woodard 2023-03-23 21:07:20 UTC 
Trying to build fedabipkgdiff on RHEL9.1 fails during configure:
../../libabigail/configure --enable-rpm=yes --enable-ctf --enable-fedabipkgdiff

The problem is that it is looking for the python3-mock module but that doesn't exist for RHEL9.1 even in EPEL because the package has been deprecated.
