One test, run-strip-nothing.sh, is known to fail. Now, as the root user: make install --program-prefix="eu-": This switch renames installed programs to avoid conflict with Binutils programs installed in LFS. --enable-valgrind: Run all tests under valgrind. Installed Programs Installed Libraries Installed Directories eu-addr2line, eu-ar, eu-elfcmp, eu-elfcompress, eu-elflint, eu-findtextrel, eu-make-debug-archive, eu-nm, eu-objdump, eu-ranlib, eu-readelf, eu-size, eu-stack, eu-strings, eu-strip, and eu-unstrip libasm.{a,so}, libdw.{a,so}, libebl.a, libelf.{a,so}, and some for different architectures under /usr/lib/elfutils /usr/include/elfutils and /usr/lib/elfutils Short Descriptions eu-addr2line converts addresses into file names and line numbers. eu-addr2line eu-ar creates, modifies, and extracts from archives. eu-ar eu-elfcmp compares relevant parts of two ELF files for equality. eu-elfcmp eu-elfcompress compresses or decompresses sections in an ELF file. eu-elfcompress eu-elflint does pedantic checking of ELF files compliance with gABI/psABI spec. eu-elflint eu-findtextrel locates the source of text relocations in FILEs (a.out by default). eu-findtextrel eu-nm lists symbols from FILEs (a.out by default). eu-nm eu-objdump shows information from FILEs (a.out by default). eu-objdump eu-ranlib generates an index to speed up access to archives. eu-ranlib eu-readelf prints information from ELF files in human-readable form. eu-readelf eu-size lists section sizes of FILEs (a.out by default). eu-size eu-stack prints a stack for each thread in a process or core file. eu-stack eu-strings prints the strings of printable characters in files. eu-strings eu-strip discards symbols from object files. eu-strip eu-unstrip combines stripped files with separate symbols and debug information. eu-unstrip
