Hi Khem,

I'm trying to upgrade binutils from 2.24 to 2.25, there is
a patch binutils/libtool-2.4-update.patch which has 19317
lines, do you have any ideas on how did we make it in the past,
please ?

what conflicts are you seeing ? if they are just in configure files then you
need to autoteconf them manually one by one using the appropriate version of 
auototools as recommended
for bintutils 2.25 usually gcc/binutils don’t use latest auto tools.

Conflicts in ld/configure, I fixed it manually, I was curious how we made this
patch, and now you have explained, thanks.

some portions are written and others are generated. since we do not autoreconf 
binutils, we do have to regenerate configure scripts
so its a special case. Usually that would not be needed for autotooled recipes

Thanks, got it.

but if they are reporting changes in other files then its a different problem 
needs to be looked at.
