Details

Description:
wvdial does not use lockdev as wvstreams is not built with support for it enabled, instead it uses its own implementation.
There is no configure support for using lockdev in wvstreams support is limited to ifdef support in the source and it appears the define must be manually passed to the compiler.
If wvstreams had such support I believe its use would be automatic and no options required.
I would suggest dropping the makedepends on lockdev and as the package is also no longer used by schroot  FS#70647  is could then be dropped.
PKGBUILd.diff.wvdial removes lockdev, and adds patches allowing the use of buildflags, the use of makeflags, destdir support, replaces deprecated _BSD_SOURCE with _DEFAULT_SOURCE.

wvstreams uses a bundled copy of xplc. Nothing from the xplc package is used. The xplc package currently fails to build.
I would suggest dropping the xplc dependency and the xplc package.

Additional info:
* wvdial 1.61-8
* wvstreams 4.6.1-17

This task depends upon

PKGBUILD.diff.wvstreams fixes parallel builds using a patch from Gentoo [1], openssl1.1 compatibility using a patch from Fedora [2].

Also, that SSL patch will allow to close one of the tasks mentioned in this TODO list ( https://archlinux.org/todo/openssl-10-retirement/ ) and later to make a transition to OpenSSL 3.

Updated PKGBUILD.diff.wvstreams for wvstreams 4.6.1-19, as above but without the now applied openssl1.1 fix.
