I don't yet have a full RHEL8 cluster to test on, and this isn't
really my area of expertise, but have you tried disabling "-Wl,-z,now"
from $LDFLAGS during the RPM build?  Since the powercap symbols are
defined in slurmctld but not slurmd, I suspect that the symbol
problems are related to the disabling of lazy symbol bindings.

I could be completely wrong, of course, but that's what I'd try. :-)
