+ The GNU binutils package contains essential tools to assemble, link and
+ manipulate binary and object files. They are often used with a compiler
+ and additional libraries for building software.
+
+ It includes the GNU linker, the portable GNU assembler, ar for modifying
+ archives (such as libraries), nm for listing symbols from object files,
+ objdump for displaying object file information, ranlib for generating
+ archive indexes, size for listing section sizes of object files,
+ strings for outputing the printable characters in files, strip for
+ stripping out symbols (like debugging information) from object files,
+ and other tools.
