RE: error building SID

["Robert Cragie" <rcc at jennic dot com>]

I couldn't get a CVS snapshot I checked out last night at about 2000 GMT to
build on Mandrake 10.0 - got exactly the same error as Ashutosh.

init_disassemble_info() is in opcodes/dis-init.c, which gets built into
libopcodes.a - right?
So it looks like libopcodes.a is not being included somehow when building
SID STATIC - that's about as much as I can figure at the moment!

Anyone any ideas?
