Hi Matthias,
I don't understand what second input file you are referring to.
On a working system (bookworm in this case), I only have buildid.ihex as an
input file and buildid.o is the output file:
$ ls -la
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 2 maxi maxi 4096 25. Jan 20:51 .
drwxrwxrwt 24 root root 16384 25. Jan 20:55 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 maxi maxi 76 25. Jan 20:17 buildid.ihex
$ objcopy -I ihex -O binary buildid.ihex buildid.o
$ echo $?
0
$ ls -la
total 28
drwxr-xr-x 2 maxi maxi 4096 25. Jan 20:55 .
drwxrwxrwt 24 root root 16384 25. Jan 20:55 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 maxi maxi 76 25. Jan 20:17 buildid.ihex
-rw-r--r-- 1 maxi maxi 20 25. Jan 20:55 buildid.o
In current unstable:
$ dpkg -l binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold

$ objcopy -I ihex -O binary buildid.ihex buildid.o
objcopy: buildid.ihex: invalid operation

Downgrading to binutils from testing:
$ dpkg -l binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold

$ objcopy -I ihex -O binary buildid.ihex buildid.o
$ echo $?
0
I also attached the buildid.ihex file to this mail.
Thanks,
