I was using Intrepid Ubuntu, got this error:
BFD: BFD (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.18.93.20081009 internal error, aborting at
../../bfd/elf.c line 4655 in assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections
I did a search with google, found this error reported many times, but strangely
enough not at all in this bugzilla.
It is reported on Ubuntu bugzilla but they have taken no action. On the
otherhand, Debian Lenny has rolled back to binutils 2.18.1 (cvs20080103), and I
saw a comment that this was done to fix these BFD errors.
I installed the binutils from Debian Lenny in Ubuntu Intrepid, and in the same
situation it now works, problem fixed.
Intrepid is using 2.18.93 (cvs20081009), but the bug is reported for other
versions. It is interesting that Debian has rolled right back that far.
