We moved from 2.21 to 2.22 back in october: commit 9777dbedb012f68e54e14f9567d9dc0187d53b17 Author: Peter Korsgaard Date: Sun Oct 6 23:45:10 2013 +0200 binutils: default to 2.22 2.21.1 is getting quite old, the linker issues with 2.22 seems to be (mostly?) sorted out by now and armhf needs 2.22+, so let's bump the default version. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard Time has perhaps come to move to 2.23 or 2.24, I don't really know. -- Bye, Peter Korsgaard
