Subject: Silence warnings about incompatible plugins.
X-Git-Url: http://git.efficios.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=13aa5ceb01cc94a0e617f397c0c5434fc22bb1e5;p=deliverable%2Fbinutils-gdb.git

Silence warnings about incompatible plugins.

I have been looking at a Fedora bug report[1] from a user who was
receiving warning messages from the BFD library about incompatible
plugins.  It turns out that they had both 32-bit and 64-bit versions
of the same plugin installed, and the BFD library was attempting to
load all of them.

After thinking about it for a while, it seemed to me that the simplest
solution was to not warn about incompatible plugins whilst attempting
to create a list of viable plugins.

	* plugin.c (try_load_plugin): Suppress the error message about
	being unable to open a plugin if creating a list of viable
	plugins.
