<title>Re-installation of Binutils</title>

<para>First create a separate build directory again:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>mkdir ../binutils-build
cd ../binutils-build</userinput></screen></para>

<para>Now prepare Binutils to be compiled:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>../binutils-&binutils-version;/configure --prefix=/stage1 \
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;--enable-shared --with-lib-path=/stage1/lib</userinput></screen></para>

<para>Before starting to build Binutils, remember to unset any environment
variables that override the default optimization flags.</para>

<para>Compile the package:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>make </userinput></screen></para>

<para>Test the results (nothing should fail here):</para>

<para><screen><userinput>make check</userinput></screen></para>

<para>And install the package:</para>                                              

<para><screen><userinput>make install</userinput></screen></para>

<para>Now already prepare Binutils for the "Locking in" procedure in the next
chapter:</para>

<para><screen><userinput>make -C ld clean
make -C ld LIB_PATH=/usr/lib:/lib</userinput></screen></para>

<para><emphasis>Do not yet remove</emphasis> the Binutils source and build
directories. We'll need these directories again in the next chapter in the
state they are in now.</para>
