            Bug ID: 32760
           Summary: ld.bfd can also use plugins
           Product: Documentation
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: General docs
          Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: dilyan.palauzov at aegee.org
                CC: llvm-bugs at lists.llvm.org

At http://llvm.org/docs/GoldPlugin.html#lto-how-to-build is written:

You need to have gold with plugin support and build the LLVMgold plugin. Check
whether you have gold running /usr/bin/ld -v. It will report “GNU gold” or else
“GNU ld” if not. If you have gold, check for plugin support by running
/usr/bin/ld -plugin. If it complains “missing argument” then you have plugin
support. If not, such as an “unknown option” error then you will either need to
build gold or install a version with plugin support.

This is not correct, as ld.bfd also supports plugins.

So just delete "whether you have gold running /usr/bin/ld -v. It will report
“GNU gold” or else “GNU ld” if not. If you have gold, check ".
