You will +find the sources for these in ftp://sourceware.cygnus.com/pub/binutils. + +Note - "make distclean" does not work with maintainer mode enabled. +The Makefiles in the some of the po/ subdirectories depend upon the +Makefiles in their parent directories, and distclean will delete the +Makefiles in the parent directories before running the Makefiles in +the child directories. There is no easy way around this (short of +changing the automake macros) as these dependencies need to exist in +order to correctly build the NLS files. |
