binutils (2.20.1-6) unstable; urgency=low

  * Move the ld.gold binary into the binutils package, just keep the
    diversion (ld) in the binutils-gold package.
  * Linker selection: ld is used by default, to use the gold linker,
    pass -fuse-linker-plugin (no other side effects if -flto/-fwhopr
    is not passed). To force ld.bfd or ld.gold, pass -B/usr/lib/compat-ld
    for ld.bfd or /usr/lib/gold-ld for ld.gold.
  * Disable building gold on arm. Use gold from the trunk, if needed.
  * Backport fixups of Loongson2F from the trunk.

binutils (2.20.1-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Mangle the soname of the binutils libraries to be different than
    the default name. Closes: #557620.
    Packaged cross builds should do the same.
  * Reduce ARM linking time (backport from the trunk).
  * Apply fix for PR ld/11426, taken from the trunk.
