How do I request an upgrade to binutils in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS?

[Paride Legovini]

Hello Barry,

This is not really the right list. Please file a bug against the 
binutils Ubuntu package, here:

   https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/binutils/+bugs

Please add a link to the upstream bug and all the information you deem 
relevant about the Ubuntu environment where you are hitting it (Ubuntu 
version, exact version of the binutils package, architecture, ...).

An update in Focal will have to follow the SRU process [1].
