[PATCH 09/12] libelf: fix spelling typos in comments

Dmitry V. Levin ldv@altlinux.org
Sat Dec 12 16:52:26 GMT 2020


Auxialiary -> Auxiliary
constucted -> constructed
desriptor -> descriptor
endianess -> endianness
responsibilty -> responsibility
sufficent -> sufficient

elf.h comes from glibc and therefore is excluded.
