Package: lintian Severity: serious Justification: FTBFS Version: 2.5.30+deb8u2 Hello, With the recent binutils 2.24.90.20141124-1, one lintian test started failing: | Running binaries-from-other-arch 1.0... building... testing...

I confirm that the test works with binutils 2.24.90.20141111 still. This might very well be a regression in binutils itself, or lintian's invocation of it needs to be adjusted, so please reassign if appropriate. I attach the complete build log for reference (but the above is the essential bit from it).
