             Bug #: 14234
           Summary: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz  collect2: ld returned 1
                    exit status
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.22
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
    Classification: Unclassified


I'm want to use
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mspgcc/files/mspgcc/DEVEL-4.7.x/
mspgcc-20120606

I have patched and compiled binutils and gcc succesfully (bin in
/usr/local/msp430/bin but the msp430-ld is not used in the compilation of gdb)


Next, I have to patch, configure and compile gdb.
Following the instructions in msp430-gdb-7.2a-20111205.patch

  tar xjf gdb-7.2a.tar.bz2
  ( cd gdb-7.2 ; patch -p1 < ../msp430-gdb-7.2a-20111205.patch )
  mkdir -p BUILD/gdb
  cd BUILD/gdb
  ../../gdb-7.2/configure \
    --target=msp430 \
    --prefix=/usr/local/msp430 \
  2>&1 | tee co
  make 2>&1 | tee mo

output make:

I don't think that msp430-ld should be used for compiling the patched gdb.

Any hints?
