Re: Question about compiling oprofile

Hi,

I tried to rebuild oprofile on various environments, but I was not able to
reproduce the issue. I tried Ubuntu 14.04 with:

gcc                       4:4.8.2-1ubuntu6
libiberty-dev:i386        20131116-1
binutils-dev              2.24-5ubuntu14

Which version of binutils-dev and libiberty-dev do you have?

Michael
