Hi Folks, tonite I tried to compile the new version of binutils (2.16.1) on various SUN-Workstations without success.
(1) First of all, there saemas to be a bug, if you use
"./configure --prefix /usr/gnu"
I got errors when typeing "make" in the sub directories
"bfd" and "libiberty".
I tried to work around that by going directly into the
sub dirs and type "./configure --prefix /usr/gnu" there
(2) Question: Why is'nt there an uninstall feature, to get rid
of previous releases?
Here are the details, and failures:
SUN OS 4.1.4

The problem is reported above!

(As already before in 11/2002!!!)

May I help you on the way to that?
