If you change /usr/lib/libbfd.a to -lbfd (lowercase -L), and change /usr/lib/libiberty.a to -liberty (lowercase -L) in the objprelink ebuild file, it compiles correctly. Then if you do a 'ebuild objprelink.ebuildfile merge', it should install it. However, when I tried doing objprelink on a *.o of a qt build, it said it was out of memory. Adam
I'm removing the objprelink ebuild from cvs. No one needs at anymore since the generic functionality is already in glibc/binutils and it just brings up bug reports.
