Summary: discrepancy between 'ld.1' file and 'configure' Product: binutils Version: 2.21 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassig...@sources.redhat.com ReportedBy: sergst...@yahoo.com As I'm reading man /mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/install/binutils-2.21/share/man/man1/ld.1 , I see among other things: 859 --sysroot=directory 860 Use directory as the location of the sysroot, overriding the configure-time default. This option is only supported by linkers that were configured 861 using --with-sysroot. , i.e. the manpage effectively claims there is '--with-sysroot' 'configure' option. OTOH, the following is true: " sergei@amdam2:~> /mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/build/binutils-2.21/configure --help | grep sysroot --with-build-sysroot=SYSROOT use sysroot as the system root during the build sergei@amdam2:~> ", i.e. 'configure' provides '--with-build-sysroot' and _not_ '--with-sysroot' option. So, I do not know the meaning of 'configure' option and I don't know how to achieve the advertised in 'ld.1' file functionality WRT sysroot. -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
