+%changelog
+* Wed Oct 27 2021 M. Vefa Bicakci <vefa.bicakci@windriver.com> - 2:0.5.0-1.tis
+- Adapt to StarlingX. The base spec file was acquired from:
+  https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/libbpf/blob/main/f/libbpf.spec
+- Change the kernel-headers requirement from 5.14.0 to 5.10.0. This should
+  not be an issue, as libbpf advertises itself to be kernel-version agnostic.
+- Add build-time dependency on devtoolset-8 and make the build use it.
+- Trim all changelog entries belonging to years before 2021.
+
+* Fri Sep 10 2021 Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> - 2:0.5.0-1
