Thomas Petazzoni d0349d5ba0 package/elf2flt: fix build with binutils >= 2.41 due to libbfd location
elf2flt needs to link against libbfd.a and libiberty.a which are
provided by host-binutils, but not installed, so we poke directly
into the host-binutils build directory. While not very nice, it has
already been like this for a long time. We could build host-binutils
with --enable-install-libbfd and --enable-install-libiberty so that
those libraries are installed, but we prefer to do this separately,
and there is a serious potential for perturbations to other packages
by having libbfd/libiberty installed in $(HOST_DIR).

In the mean time, an issue of poking directly into the host-binutils
build directory is that the location of libbfd.a has changed in
binutils >= 2.41, so we special case binutils 2.39 and 2.40, which are
the two remaining versions still using the "old" path".

Note: the ARC-special binutils version is not considered because
Buildroot only supports ARC CPUs with a MMU and therefore host-elf2flt
is never used on ARC.

Fixes:

gcc: error: /builds/buildroot.org/toolchains-builder/build/output/build/host-binutils-2.41/bfd/libbfd.a: No such file or directory

When build host-elf2flt against host-binutils 2.41.

This issue is not visible in the autobuilders as it is hidden by the
BFD_VMA_FMT issue fixed in the previous commit.

README

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
