              Host: openSESE 11.1
            Target: mipsel
             Build: 2009.02-rc4
           Summary: binutils 2.17 fails to build when texinfo >= 4.10
           Product: buildroot
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: Outdated package
        AssignedTo: unassigned@...
        ReportedBy: luke_tucker@...
                CC: buildroot@...
   Estimated Hours: 0.0


The configure script of binutils 2.17 tries to detect whether makeinfo is later
than v4.4 however it does not take into account minor versions with double
digits so v4.12 fails the test and stops binutils building even though the
texinfo verion is valid.

Ok, thanks for reporting. Why would you want to use binutils 2.17 instead of
2.19? Do you have the same issue with 2.19?

As you probably noticed, 2.17 is marked as deprecated and is scheduled to go
away in the next release (2009.05).

The reason I was using binutils 2.17 is because I'm building applications for a
reverse engineered platform (TViX DVICO 6500) and I am trying to keep
everything as close to the toolchain used by the original developers even
though 2.19 will probably work as you say.

Thanks for the fix.
