Bugs on binutils - verious SUNs . . .
Hi Folks, tonite I tried to compile the new version of binutils (2.16.1) on various SUN-Workstations without success. (1) First of all, there saemas to be a bug, if you use "./configure --prefix /usr/gnu" I got errors when typeing "make" in the sub directories "bfd" and "libiberty". I tried to work around that by going directly into the sub dirs and type "./configure --prefix /usr/gnu" there (2) Question: Why is'nt there an uninstall feature, to get rid of previous releases? Here are the details, and failures: SUN OS 4.1.4 SS5, 170 MHZ with gcc 2.95.3 (/usr/gnu/bin/gcc) Failure, see enclosure (BinU_SunOS414.gz)! binutils-2.16 -> I gave up with the "--prefix" in the config. The problem is reported above! binutils-2.15 -> I gave up with the "--prefix" in the config. The problem is reported above! binutils-2.14 -> succeeded! (As already before in 11/2002!!!)

It seams, that the configure command is not working in the subdirectories. The last version I saw this working was 2.14. Can you please check and fix the bug? If possible, please ?!
