make ld: Command not found in Ubuntu

Question

I am trying to create executable file though following code,

exe.x : obj.o
     ld -o exe.x obj.o
obj.o : a01.asm
     nasm -f win64 -o obj.o -l list.l a01.asm

When I run this file via "make" command in terminal it only gives object file and list file, then stop and shows make ld: Command not found and suggest "sudo apt install ld", but this also gives me error "Unable to locate package ld". I use latest version of Ubuntu.

Answer 1

You have to install the package binutils . It contains tool like an assembler ( gas ),the linker ( ld ) and other utilities to work with object/executable files.
