MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for mipsel-ps2-irx-binutils [2]:
Broken old component from 4 years ago of the gnu cross compiler
toolchain for MIPSEL.
The 'ps2' fork of this toolchain is discontinued for 4 years, [a]
in favor of using the vanilla upstream gnu compiler components.
Not useful to keep this package. AUR has working packages for the
mipsel cross-compiler toolchain, with different versions of gcc
available for this target. Those can be used for the PS2 as well.
