Description

We recently added a hard dependency for `libelf` on Linux. This was in
preparation for some upcoming Nvidia GPU support for injecting volumes
into containers. Since this dependence is not actually necessary for
the upcoming release, we should remove it for now, and rethink the
best way to add it back in later (possibly as a runtime dependence
instead of a linktime one).
