Dear SeaBIOS and Binutils folks,

I think the main issue is going to be the breaking of existing
software builds.
True - but the counter argument is that those builds were relying upon
a mis-feature of the BFD linker, and so maybe the correct thing to do
is to fix the builds.
Also, you mentioned "which will disable the warnings about linking in
executable files". I thought PR 26047 created a fatal error in this
situation. Is the proposed change to make the error a warning or am I
missing something?
Sorry - I misstyped. I meant that the proposed patch would disable
the fatal error, rather than a simple warning.
The Debian Sid/unstable packages were just updated to the newly released
version 2.35. With that, I am able to build SeaBIOS again, and, as
expected, the two warnings below are shown.
ld: Using an executable file (out/rom16.strip.o) as input to a link
is deprecated - support is likely to be removed in the future
ld: Using an executable file (out/rom32seg.strip.o) as input to a
link is deprecated - support is likely to be removed in the future
Thank you everyone involved.
Kind regards,
Paul
