Bug ID: 27113 Summary: libdep not correctly loaded on Windows Product: binutils Version: 2.36 (HEAD) Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: binutils Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: markus.boeck02 at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- Recent versions introduced libdep which on Windows is installed in root/bfd-plugins/libdep.dll. Problem is that along with it libdep.dll.a is also installed which various tools in binutils attempt to load. This is problematic as it is not a shared library and Windows opens a message box due to attempted execution of a non executable image. Since libdep.dll is a plugin could it be that libdep.dll.a is not supposed to exist? Or should it be ignored by various binutils tools -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
