[fixed] firefox test compile passing ld unknown option

Message

While emerging firefox-60.5.1:

...
0:06.95 DEBUG: configure:2189:1: warning: return type defaults to 'int' [-Wimplicit-int]
 0:06.95 DEBUG: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.3.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: unrecognized option '--compress-debug-sections=zlib'
 0:06.95 DEBUG: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.3.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information
 0:06.95 DEBUG: collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
...

and then, of course, says that the compiler cannot create executables. I don't see a USE flag that might affect this; is there one? Some other solution?

Thanks.

You can post your emerge --info? What linker you use?

As the snippet shows, ld. --info output:

Try to switch to binutils 2.30 with eselect binutils command

That did the trick. Thanks.

You should probably clean out the older binutils versions. They should not be needed anymore.
