Oh, sorry, I've forgot to update "status" here.

We can't merge a patch that fails the CI tests - this fails because fsverity is enabled in the CI but the library doesn't exist in Fedora 32. Hardly surprising as the library version isn't even released upstream AFAICS. That can be worked around by not enabling it in the CI, but I'm also not going to merge a patch I've never seen compile (and I haven't gotten around to build from upstream yet, although I did notice the library thing has been merged). I'd prefer to see an upstream release of fsverity library before merging and optimally, said version in Fedora >= 32 so we could enable it in CI, but I do realize there could be other incompatibilities preventing the latter from occurring so that can't be a hard requirement.

Speaking of enabling it in configure, I just noticed that it doesn't actually check for fsverity presence in configure, so if enabled but missing it'll fail in middle of compilation instead of configure time as it should. So there's a minor tweak that'll be needed.
