- # WARNING: Upstream made a mistake in packaging that may mean anyone
- # but the FSF hosting this tarball is accidentally in violation of
- # the GPL. We can't update binutils until the next stdenv-updates,
- # so we are stuck with this version. The issue is discussed in
- # this email: http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2011-08/msg00198.html
- # The tarball for this minor version will not be fixed, as only the
- # tarballs for the latest minor version of each major version will
- # be repackaged. The fixed sources for the closest version to this one
- # can be found at mirror://gnu/binutils/binutils-2.21.1a.tar.bz2
- # or http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.21.1a.tar.bz2
- # The sources missing from this tarball come from cgen. It is unclear
- # WHICH sources should be included, but the cvs tree can be checked out
- # by:
- # cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:[email protected]:/cvs/src login
- # {enter "anoncvs" as the password}
- # cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:[email protected]:/cvs/src co cgen
