No idea.  Maybe some of the RedHat people on the xfs list have more
experience with Fedora than I have.

What's the circular link chain?

Don't look at me - I use Debian for all my upstream stuff.... ;)

Having the output of all the steps, especially the xfsprogs
install-qa step is probably going to be necessary to debug this. You
probably want to run "make Q= install-qa" so that it runs verbosely.

Just FWIW fedora has xfsprogs-devel and xfsprogs-qa-devel rpms which should satisfy xfstests for that part of the deps.  I've not done a qa-install manually on fedora since forever...
