When built with + debuginfod, readelf and objdump can automatically query debuginfod + servers for separate debug files when they otherwise cannot be found. + To build binutils with debuginfod, pass --with-debuginfod to configure. + This requires libdebuginfod, the debuginfod client library. debuginfod + is distributed with elfutils, starting with version 0.178. For more + information see https://sourceware.org/elfutils. + * Add --output option to the "ar" program. This option can be used to specify the output directory when extracting members from an archive. |
