Indeed, it is more an issue with 2.6.0-9, or an issue with binutils. >> Severity: serious Just asked the release team about their opinion on this on IRC: [14:30] * Elbrus wonders what the opinion of the release team is with respect to bug 777027 [14:30] <Elbrus> the problem is actually more in wheezy than in jessie [14:31] <Elbrus> do you think this should be fixed in the jessie package of fpc, or should we rather fix the wheezy package [14:31] <Elbrus> #777027 [14:31] [Notice] -zwiebelbot to #debian-release- Debian#777027: fpc: fp-compiler-2.6.0 prevents upgrade of binutils - https://bugs.debian.org/777027 [14:32] <jcristau> i think that bug should be downgraded [14:33] <Elbrus> so you don't want to have this fixed?

If anybody cares and if I am correct, one could just apply patches/use-bfd-explicitly.diff from 2.6.2/2.6.4 (minus possible fuzz; I don't have the source yet, so I haven't actually checked) Paul
