Re: Trouble updating avr-binutils

Hello!

And when you will get to compile binutils, avr-gcc will die compiling
inside libiberty. Overwrite libiberty with on found inside the newest
binutils, and it will compile ok. For me it failed at linking. I tried
to follow their howto, but couldn't figure out where i went wrong, so
i put the topic avay for a while. Good luck! And for gcc i recommend
unpacking the numerical libraries inside the gcc sources, to get built
automatically along with gcc.
