Thanks for the analysis Jan :-) I've bumped up to binutils 2.19 and I believe I've fixed all the issues that Jan mentioned. Spec: http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/rds/rpm/mspgcc/msp430-binutils.spec SRPM: http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/rds/rpm/mspgcc/msp430-binutils-2.19-1.fc10.src.rpm The MAKEINFO variable was set because the configure script in binutils 2.18 had a bug that meant makeinfo detection would fail. Setting MAKEINFO bypassed this test. Binutils 2.19 has fixed this problem. I think that I should explain where the patches come from slightly more. The mspgcc project has maintained these patches against binutils for at least two years now. They add support for a variety of MSP430 variants. For 2.19, these patches have been merged into one. These patches are available in the mspgcc CVS: http://mspgcc.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/mspgcc/packaging/patches/ I'm not completely sure why these are not in binutils itself. However, I think that keeping this patch out would just irritate users. I will post to the mspgcc mailing list about this and try to get that patch into binutils itself. Not now though, it's very late/early here. Cheers, Rob p.s. Apologies if I sound irritated in this post. Xorg hung on me and the Firefox session saving thing doesn't save form element contents... so I ended up writing this twice! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
