Re: pkgsrc bootstrap fails on Tribblix

[Hung Nguyen Gia <gh_origin%zohomail.com@localhost>]

I discovered something: the output of ld --version is:

GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.25.1
Copyright (C) 2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

the GNU General Public License version 3 or (at your option) a later version.

which ld output is /usr/gnu/bin/ld

The default PATH environment variable on Tribblix:

/usr/gnu/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

/usr/bin/ld --version

ld: Software Generation Utilities - Solaris Link Editors: 5.11-1.1763 (illumos)

It seemed the wrong linker was picked.

I will try adjusting the PATH.
