RE: binutils-050120 build error

["Nitin Shah" <NitinS2 at KPITCummins dot com>]

Hi,

I have downloaded the binutils source from the following link,

ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/binutils/snapshots/

I have created different folders for build, prefix and source, name as build, prefix and source.
Then I configured and make the binutils from the build folder as given below,
cd build
./../source/binutils-050120/configure --target=sh-elf --prefix=/home/prefix
make
make install 

In this way I am able to build binutils-2.15 successfully, but geting mentioned error for binutils-050120.

Thanks in advance.
 
Regards,
Nitin Shah.

Hi,

It should work as suggested by Khem.
If not then let me know from which place did you downloaded the 
binutils build?
