------- Comment #4 from rob1weld at aol dot com 2007-05-24 06:01 ------- According to this page: http://www.gnu.org/software/binutils/
The newest version is being called binutils-2.17.50 (name for snapshot). ftp://sourceware.org/pub/binutils/snapshots/ 05/17/2006 12:00AM 13,716,872 binutils-2.16.93.tar.bz2 06/12/2006 12:00AM 13,814,217 binutils-2.16.94.tar.bz2 05/22/2007 05:47AM 14,958,122 binutils-2.17.50.tar.bz2 The "best" solution for Debian _might_ be: cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/src login {enter "anoncvs" as the password} cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/src co binutils and then go here: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/source/binutils and apply http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/binutils/binutils_2.17cvs20070426-5.diff.gz - making sure not to _undo_ anything, just planning to get the Debian'isms and GNU/Linix'ishness . After I do this it can not be "my" fault, correct ? Do you have better advice? I maintain that this should not be neccesary. It is like this for a lot of parts of GCC, requiring bleeding edge (Like GTK libs). I can do it and don't mind but it reduces the number of people who can do everything and increases tech-support / bug reports. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32062
