[ol9_appstream] annobin-12.65-1.el9.x86_64

Provides a plugin for GCC that records extra information in the files
that it compiles.

Note - the plugin is automatically enabled in gcc builds via flags
provided by the redhat-rpm-macros package.


Also provides a plugin for Clang which performs a similar function.



Also provides a plugin for LLVM which performs a similar function.
