New: binutils 2.17 fails to build when texinfo >= 4.10
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=111
Host: openSESE 11.1
Target: mipsel
Build: 2009.02-rc4
Summary: binutils 2.17 fails to build when texinfo >= 4.10
Product: buildroot
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5
Component: Outdated package
AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
ReportedBy: luke_tucker at yahoo.co.uk
CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
Estimated Hours: 0.0
The configure script of binutils 2.17 tries to detect whether makeinfo is later than v4.4 however it does not take into account minor versions with double digits so v4.12 fails the test and stops binutils building even though the texinfo verion is valid.

--- Comment #1 from Peter Korsgaard <[email protected]> 2009-02-18 07:38:16 UTC --- Ok, thanks for reporting. Why would you want to use binutils 2.17 instead of 2.19? Do you have the same issue with 2.19?
As you probably noticed, 2.17 is marked as deprecated and is scheduled to go away in the next release (2009.05).

--- Comment #3 from Luke <[email protected]> 2009-03-07 13:11:03 UTC --- The reason I was using binutils 2.17 is because I'm building applications for a reverse engineered platform (TViX DVICO 6500) and I am trying to keep everything as close to the toolchain used by the original developers even though 2.19 will probably work as you say.
Thanks for the fix.
