Description chmeeedalf 2007-09-13 18:48:02 UTC 
[Converted from Gnats 2317]

When attempting to compile gdb for an embedded system, the options --disable-install-libbfd and --disable-install-libiberty are used so as not to conflict with the installed toolchain's copy.  However, --disable-install-libiberty has no effect, and still installs libiberty.a, which causes problems when gdb is removed from the system (using package management).

Release:
unknown

Environment:
Any

How-To-Repeat:
Compile gdb with --disable-install-libiberty

I tried this today and it works for me.
