Description Kaiting Chen 2007-09-12 17:08:55 UTC

Removing gcc and binutils leave some files around the system that aren't needed anymore. Specifically, /usr/share/gcc-data/(old_version) and /usr/share/binutils-data/(old_version) because the dir.old file in the info directory is not removed.

Reproducible: Always
