Re: Does anyone need to delay the 2.47 release ?

Jan Beulich raised a concern about a build failure in generated files potentially delaying the upcoming binutils 2.47 release. Nick Clifton is seeking confirmation if applying a specific fix is sufficient or if other issues necessitate a postponement. Alice Carlotti acknowledged the fix and apologized for the breakage.
