# WARNING: Upstream made a mistake in packaging that may mean anyone
|
||||
# but the FSF hosting this tarball is accidentally in violation of
|
||||
# the GPL. We can't update binutils until the next stdenv-updates,
|
||||
# so we are stuck with this version. The issue is discussed in
|
||||
# this email: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2011-08/msg00198.html
|
||||
# The tarball for this minor version will not be fixed, as only the
|
||||
# tarballs for the latest minor version of each major version will
|
||||
# be repackaged. The fixed sources for the closest version to this one
|
||||
# can be found at mirror://gnu/binutils/binutils-2.21.1a.tar.bz2
|
||||
# or http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.21.1a.tar.bz2
|
||||
# The sources missing from this tarball come from cgen. It is unclear
|
||||
# WHICH sources should be included, but the cvs tree can be checked out
|
||||
# by:
|
||||
# cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.org:/cvs/src login
|

# {enter "anoncvs" as the password}

# cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.org:/cvs/src co cgen
