Could it be that it is new with 2.20-3 or 2.20-4? I think I didn't saw that in earlier version. I think I saw it the first time when compiling batctl - which I compiled right after update of my Sources file. This was after the 11. November.
I wanted to write a bug report right now but haven't a glue why it fails. objcopy --only-keep-debug debian/batctl/usr/sbin/batctl debian/batctl- seems to work without any problems. The real problem is objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink debian/batctl-dbg/usr/lib/debug//usr/sbin/batctl debian/batctl/usr/sbin/batctl So a small test would be: $ echo 'int main() { return 0; }' > test.c && \ gcc -g3 test.c -o test && \ objcopy --only-keep-debug test test.dbg && \ objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=./test.dbg test && echo "cool it works" objcopy:stCdJOm4: cannot create debug link section `./test.dbg': Invalid operation This works with the old linker, but not with binutils-gold So I build the cvs version of the linker and objcopy and it is the same here. So it is propably an upstream bug.
