Package: binutils-dev
Version: 2.33.90.20200122-2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
linux perf build fails with current version of binutils-dev:
Steps to produce:
$ cd /path/to/linux/tools/perf
$ make
Everything worked with the previous(?) version of binutils-dev: 2.33.1-6.
Relevant output:

util/srcline.c: In function ‘find_address_in_section’:

And as expected: bfd_get_section_flags() is now missing in /usr/include/bfd.h
which leads to this error.
