Hi Roberto, The missing commands are binutils commands, not gcc commands, but I suppose gcc-mingw32 could provide them (rather than introduction a binutils compatibility package).
My real question is, does the lack of these commands cause issues? The idea behind gcc-mingw32 is just to provide compatibility symlinks to allow autoconf etc. to find the compiler (and related tools) even when using the old i586-mingw32msvc triplet. I tested a variety of programs using that triplet with the new gcc-mingw32 package and they built successfully; the binutils tools actually end up being found with the i686-w64-mingw32 triplet: % i586-mingw32msvc-gcc -print-prog-name=ld /usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-ld Regards, Stephen ** Changed in: gcc-mingw32 (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Stephen Kitt (steve-sk2) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/992161 Title: gcc-mingw32 fails to install several links To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-mingw32/+bug/992161/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
