I have
[I] sys-devel/binutils
Available versions:
(2.25.1) 2.25.1-r1
(2.26.1) (~)2.26.1
(2.27) (~)2.27
(git) **9999
{cxx multitarget nls static-libs
test
vanilla zlib}
Installed versions:
2.25.1-r1(2.25.1)(01:06:59 AM
01/11/2017)(cxx nls
zlib
-multitarget
-static-libs -test
-vanilla)
2.26.1(2.26.1)(07:16:43
AM 12/27/2016)(cxx nls
-multitarget
-static-libs -test
-vanilla)
2.27(2.27)(07:23:40 AM
12/27/2016)(cxx nls
-multitarget
-static-libs -test
-vanilla)
But only one version of sys-libs/bin-utils-libs
But I found binutils-config and just switched from 2.25-r1 to 2.27, so
I will see what happens.
So, after removing the old versions of binutils, the preserved-rebuild
problem went away!
Thanks all for all your help on that . Now I have to somehow deal
with the gst-plugins-ffmpeg.
