Description Denys Dmytriyenko 2024-08-07 19:10:11 UTC 
ffmpeg on armv5 and armv7 fails to build with latest binutils 2.43, but aarch64/armv8 is fine
reverting binutils 2.43 update also resolved the issue

it fails compiling asm code with lots of repeated lines like this:

src/libavcodec/arm/mlpdsp_armv5te.S:232: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `0'

Set LICENSE_FLAGS_ACCEPTED="commercial" and MACHINE="qemuarm" and bitbake ffmpeg to reproduce.
