1 To strip down a new version of GNU binutils for import, extract
4 tar -xvzf binutils-2.9.1.tar.gz -X FREEBSD-Xlist
6 Don't eliminate the *z8* files. They're needed because of a stupid
7 hard-coded configure script in the opcodes subdirectory.
9 If you decide to bring in more of the files, import them -- don't
10 use "cvs add". And please remember to adjust the contents of
11 "FREEBSD-Xlist" so that it reflects what is really imported from
14 Many of the files generated by GNU configure are present pre-built in
15 the "src/gnu/usr.bin/binutils" tree. These can be regenerated for a
16 new version of binutils by running the "update.sh" script in that
19 When upgrading to a new version, you also need to update the VERSION
20 definition in "src/gnu/usr.bin/binutils/Makefile.inc0".
