Description Kristoffer Grundström 2024-03-31 03:01:52 CEST 
Description of problem: I see that binutils requires itself and the same version to actually install. I therfor ask for backporting binutils 2.42 from Cauldron to Mageia 9.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.42
Comment 1 Lewis Smith 2024-03-31 20:30:46 CEST 
Can one ask "Why?"
Does the current M9 version cause you a problem?

Source RPM: binutils => binutils-2.40-11.mga9.src.rpm
CC: (none) => lewyssmith
Severity: normal => enhancement

Comment 2 Kristoffer Grundström 2024-04-02 05:48:51 CEST 
Yes, some packages I'm porting requires 2.42 to be installed.
Comment 3 Lewis Smith 2024-04-02 21:35:29 CEST 
Accept that it matters.
We actually have v2.42 in Cauldron, so this needs updating for M9.
Assigning to Basesystem, CC'ing everyone given the routine nature of the bug.
