The patch you point to was never applied to Ubuntu packages. Even more, we have reverted it in all our releases.
The proper fix to this bug on ARM is in binutils: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils- gdb.git;a=commitdiff;h=97323ad11305. Dear binutils maintainers: do you think it will be possible to backport the above fix to Trusty? ** Also affects: binutils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1441961 Title: dataChanged signal cannot be used on ARM under certain conditions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/binutils/+bug/1441961/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
