  38. <para>It is important that Binutils be the first package compiled
  39. because both Glibc and GCC perform various tests on the available
  40. linker and assembler to determine which of their own features to
  41. enable.</para>
  42. <para>The Binutils documentation recommends building Binutils
  43. in a dedicated build directory:</para>
  44. <screen><userinput remap="pre">mkdir -v build
  45. cd build</userinput></screen>
  46. <note>
  47. <para>In order for the SBU values listed in the rest of the book
  48. to be of any use, measure the time it takes to build this package from
  49. the configuration, up to and including the first install. To achieve
  50. this easily, wrap the commands in a <command>time</command>
  51. command like this: <userinput>time { ./configure ... &amp;&amp; ...
  52. &amp;&amp; make install; }</userinput>.</para>
