Hmm, I wonder what debian have done to binutils? You probably should report this problem to them if it persists. > ar cr ../lapack_LINUX.a zbdsqr.o zgbbrd.o zgbcon.o zgbequ.o zgbrfs.o > > < snip the listing of a whole bunch more .o files > > > BFD: BFD 2.16.91 20060413 Debian GNU/Linux internal error, aborting at > ../../bfd/elfcode.h line 190 in bfd_elf32_swap_symbol_in This error means that a symbol has an st_shndx field equal to 0xffff, but no SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX section was found. ELF symbols normally only use 16-bit section indices. 0xffff should only occur if the object has more than 64k sections. I think that is unlikely for lapack, so the error is probably due to some sort of file corruption. -- Alan Modra IBM OzLabs - Linux Technology Centre _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
