The latest mingw64-binutils is broken for me:
$ echo 'main() { }' > a.c; /bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc a.c
/usr/bin/x86_64-w64-mingw32-ld: cannot find default-manifest.o
$ echo 'main() { }' > a.c; /bin/i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -m32 a.c
/usr/bin/i686-w64-mingw32-ld: cannot find default-manifest.o
It works with the normal cygwin gcc, tho:
$ echo 'main() { }' > a.c; gcc a.c
$
Looks like it's not searching for the default-manifest.o in the correct
include paths.
The mingw file resides in
/usr/{x86_64,i686}-w64-mingw32/lib/
Maybe it should be in
/usr/{x86_64,i686}-w64-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/lib/
But the weird thing is that all those scripts in the ldscripts directory
specify
SEARCH_DIR("=/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib");
so I'm not sure why this fails.
I'm also experiencing the problems mentioned in the following thread:
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-04/msg00016.html
In my case compiling putty/kitty from source using the latest binutils
results in a broken "About" button. Clicking it simply does nothing, no
about dialog appears at all.
Is there a way to disable that whole default-manifest.o thing for now
without having to roll back to an older version of binutils?
