- Subject: stripping symbols needed for relocations
Wouldn't it make sense to prevent doing such (except when --strip-all)
in the first place (binutils/objcopy.c, filter_symbols) rather than
generating an error message (bfd/elf.c,
_bfd_elf_symbol_from_bfd_symbol)? Or are there specific uses of doing so
that would not result in such an error?
Thanks, Jan
