Subject: [PATCH] elf: Use new dependency sorting algorithm by default
Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2021 12:53:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fsqvqu62.fsf@oldenburg.str.redhat.com> (raw)

The default has to change eventually, and there are no known failures
that require a delay.

Tested on i686-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.
