Hello Sir/Mam
I am trying to install binutils-2.24 on Debian 8.4 to build gcc cross-compiler for
powerpc-linux.
Binutils is not part of GCC, so you should have asked on the binutils
mailing list instead.
If you configure with --disable-werror then that diagnostic will only
be a warning, not an error.
Right.
This kind of issue comes up commonly when trying to build older code
with newer compilers. I've long held the opinion that -Werror, while
good for development is wrong for releases.
