Hi @sergey-safarov,

Thank you for the report. I found the same issue on Fedoras 39 and 40 (interestingly, the EOL Fedora 38 still worked!).

I'm suspicious this is a Fedora toolchain mismatch issue. I could circumvent the problem by using our docker rpm build (make rpm-docker) instead:

19. Building for RHEL, Fedora, CentOS, SUSE, and openSUSE

    To generate a .rpm package, configure wolfSSL with the desired
    configuration. Then run `make rpm` to generate a .rpm package
    with the current configuration. To build the package inside a
    Docker container, use `make rpm-docker`. In both cases the
    resulting packages are placed in the root directory of the
    project.

I would recommend trying this for now.

Let me know if this helps. Best, Jordan

Hi @sergey-safarov,

I upgraded my system to Fedora 41 and this resolved the native toolchain rpm build issue.

I would recommend either using the docker rpm build method, or to try updating your system and see if that resolves your build issue.

Best, Jordan

I can confirm that using Fedora 41 rpm is packaged properly.
