Thanks for the rebuild. However, the root of this problem is that binutils-dev should never be linked dynamically. It says so in the package description: “Note that building Debian packages which depend on the shared libbfd is Not Allowed.” The Ubuntu-specific patch that causes oprofile to link libbfd dynamically is incorrect and should be removed.
