Re: Error while executing build

while building binutils !!! Following are the last few lines of my make.out

Looks like some cruft has been left behind from a previous install. Delete /tools/H-i686-pc-cygwin/lib/#inst.293# and indeed any similarly named files in your build tree (/tmp/build/binutils/bfd) if they exist (although I don't think they would).

The confusion is probably because of some quoting issue with the '#'s. Make sure to quote it properly when you delete it too.
