About:
This package provides the GNU Binutils suite, specifically built for the x86_64-linux-gnu target triplet. It includes essential tools like the GNU assembler (as), linker (ld), and binary utilities (objdump, readelf) for processing compiled object files and libraries. It is indispensable for developers compiling software on Linux systems intended to run on x86_64 hardware.
Key Features:
  • Cross-compilation support for x86_64-linux-gnu
  • Includes assembler, linker, and object file analyzer
  • Supports ELF binary format used by Linux
  • Provides debugging and profiling utilities
Use Cases:
  • Compiling software for Linux x86_64 from a different host architecture
  • Analyzing binary files for debugging or reverse engineering
  • Linking object files into executable programs or libraries
Alternatives:
  • llvm – LLVM/Clang provides a modern alternative toolchain with different architecture support
  • linux-headers – Required for system development but does not provide the assembler/linker tools
