You were speaking to Leon no me (The OP), but since my output was identical, I'll report too: I'm running ~x86 on everything and latest version of gentoolkit (I don't have gentoolkit-dev installed) I've emerged lafilefixer (thanks Steve) and ran lafilefixer --justfixit Then ran revdep-rebuild again.... it still finds broken binutils so I'm letting it `oneshot' the emerge. Was the expectation that running `lafilefixer --justfixit' would stop revdep-rebuild from continuously finding a broken binutils? Or was I expected to run lafilefixer --justfixit and then rebuild binutils once more? In any case I did the later and now the oneshot has finished and a rerun of revdep-rebuild again finds the same `broken' binutils.... Apparently no progress has occurred..
