Then Mayuresh has to verify that his versions of the packages were
not built "long" ago. Because this is an "old" version of Firefox
that is been used, hence its dependencies---the version of its
dependencies---have not changed since, and one or several of the
dependencies can have been compiled before the fix to the binutils.
I fail to see how this could happen without involving the linker and
bfd...
BTW, are these packages "cross-compiled" on a system with an arm
processor that is not the target one (a more "muscled" machine than is
generally available with a earmv7)? Because the fix was for
elf32-arm.h and I wonder if there could be an elfxx-aarch64.c coming in
the way...
