Hi Ben,

I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and it ships with coccinelle 1.0.0~rc21, Debian
testing also has a recent enough version and here [0] it says that
Fedora 22 will have a recent enough version. Isn't it possible to
install a library from a more recent fedora version on your fedora 21?

I do not know what features from 1.0.0~rc21 are used have you tried to
remove the check for that version any try it with version 1.0.0-rc20
which is in fedora 21?
