But:

⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ rpm -qa | grep libbpf
libbpf-0.8.0-2.fc37.x86_64
libbpf-devel-0.8.0-2.fc37.x86_64
⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$

⬢[acme@toolbox perf-tools-next]$ cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Fedora Linux"
VERSION="37 (Container Image)"


I'll see if this is just a matter of tweaking the error message to
something like "libbpf-devel not found or older than 1.0.0, please install/update"
