I've symlinked from my GDB install to /opt/cfarm/gdb-8.0.1.

No clue what's up with that.

It's a security feature (fs.protected_symlinks).

How is it then possible to share the newly generated gdb 16.3 64-bit binary
in /opt/cfarm if symbolic links are protected?

I did:
muller@cfarm230:/opt/cfarm$ ln -sf /home/muller/gnu-mips64
muller@cfarm230:/opt/cfarm$ ls -l ./gnu-mips64/bin/gdb
-rwxr-xr-x 1 muller muller 211647592 Jun 17 16:16 ./gnu-mips64/bin/gdb
muller@cfarm230:/opt/cfarm$  ./gnu-mips64/bin/gdb --version

muller@cfarm230:/opt/cfarm$ file  ./gnu-mips64/bin/gdb
./gnu-mips64/bin/gdb: ELF 64-bit MSB pie executable, MIPS, MIPS64 rel2 version 
1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld.so.1, 
BuildID[sha1]=6d4c1a55ba943ea14da9eb300f2bd7b1327aa74c, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, 
with debug_info, not stripped

But this will probably not work for others either because of this security 
feature.

Furthermore:
muller@cfarm230:/opt/cfarm$ ldd   ./gnu-mips64/bin/gdb
        linux-vdso.so.1 (0x000000fff52e0000)

        libstdc++.so.6 => /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x000000fff2ebf000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x000000fff2ddc000)

        libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x000000fff2d45000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x000000fff2b7a000)
        /lib64/ld.so.1 (0x000000fff52ab000)

I had to generate a 64-bit version of gmp and mpfr packages,
and if I try to install them into /opt/cfarm prefix,
they will be placed in /opt/cfarm/lib
which is wrong because this directory should problably only contain o32 ABI 
libraries...

Is there a 'proper' way to install a 64-bit n64 ABI library into /opt/cfarm?

Pierre
