Available Packages
Name : binutils-devel
Version : 2.30
Release : 113.el8
Architecture : x86_64
Size : 3.7 M
Source : binutils-2.30-113.el8.src.rpm
Repository : appstream
Summary : BFD and opcodes static and dynamic libraries and header files
URL : https://sourceware.org/binutils
License : GPLv3+
Description : This package contains BFD and opcodes static and dynamic libraries.
:
: The dynamic libraries are in this package, rather than a separate
: base package because they are actually linker scripts that force
: the use of the static libraries. This is because the API of the
: BFD library is too unstable to be used dynamically.
:
: The static libraries are here because they are now needed by the
: dynamic libraries.
:
: Developers starting new projects are strongly encouraged to consider
: using libelf instead of BFD.
