Error when parsing patchelf --version

[Timmmm]

Bug Description

I get this error:

 maturin failed
  Caused by: Failed to parse patchelf version
  Caused by: unexpected end of input while parsing minor version number

It is caused because my patchelf does not use a semver version:

❯ patchelf --version
patchelf 0.12

This is on RHEL 8.

The code uses parse::<semver::Version> to parse it, from the semver crate.

That parse function requires a patch component.

Those docs suggest using VersionReq instead but that doesn't seem right. I would maybe just do something like if only_one_dot(version) { version += ".0" }. Or just split on dots.

I guess the other option is to give a better error message since apparently Patchelf 0.14 is required and maybe they switched to proper semver by that point.

Your maturin version (maturin --version)

1.5.1

Your Python version (python -V)

3.12.5

Your pip version (pip -V)

23.2.1

What bindings you're using

bin

Does cargo build work?

• Yes, it works

If on windows, have you checked that you aren't accidentally using unix path (those with the forward slash /)?

• Yes

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install patchelf 0.12.
2. Built a maturin project that requires patchelf.
