General

Have the results of the proposed changes been tested?

  • I use the packages affected by the proposed changes on a regular basis and confirm this PR works for me
  • I generally don't use the affected packages but briefly tested this PR

Without binutils, crash fails due to missing /usr/bin/strings:

% crash kdump.vmcore vmlinux

...

WARNING: kernel relocated [664MB]: patching 81548 gdb minimal_symbol values

please wait... (patching 81548 gdb minimal_symbol values) sh: 1: /usr/bin/strings: not found
WARNING: kernels compiled by different gcc versions:
  vmlinux: (unknown)
  kdump.vmcore kernel: 7.5.0

WARNING: kernel version inconsistency between vmlinux and dumpfile

crash: incompatible arguments:  vmlinux is not SMP -- kdump.vmcore is SMP

Usage:

  crash [OPTION]... NAMELIST MEMORY-IMAGE[@ADDRESS]     (dumpfile form)
  crash [OPTION]... [NAMELIST]                          (live system form)
