This is pretty normal, I'm afraid.  ELDK v4.2 was based on bash 3.2 of
May, 2007 - that's more than 7 years ago.   You must not expect that
you can just update to pretty recent versions of some software
package any more.  You will find that you run into a dependency here
and one there, which in turn will cause other dependencies, and in a
blink of an eye you will be trapped in a maze of depencencies which
cover more or less the whole distribution.

ELDK v4.2 is outdated, and it is practically impossible to update it.

It was a great release - I think the best we ever did - but now it is
obsolete, and time to move on.

I recommend you stop wasting your time on that old stuff, and switch
to a more recent ELDK v5.x version.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
