[Mesa-users] Installation problem

Hi Nor,

I set up an Ubuntu 20.04 virtual machine last night and had no problem installing MESA with SDK 21.4.1 after installing the SDK prerequisites.

I searched some of the terms from your error message on the mailing list archive and found this post:

     https://lists.mesastar.org/pipermail/mesa-users/2015-June/005297.html

where the problem was resolved by installing `binutils`.  Are you sure you've installed `binutils`?  I'm suspicious because your screenshot shows some `apt` output that includes

     The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
       binutils-common binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu libbinutils libctf-nobfd0 libctf0

I looked at the dependencies for `binutils` on the Ubuntu package index:

     https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/binutils

and they include `binutils-common`.  That `apt` thinks its no longer required suggests to me that you haven't installed `binutils` (or perhaps accidentally removed it).

Cheers,
Warrick
