It seems I can't install gold linker for 13.10 anymore:

$ sudo apt-get install binutils-gold
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
Note, selecting 'binutils' instead of 'binutils-gold'
binutils is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 276 not upgraded

I see this with lots of 'removal' notices. WTH? I already tried apt-get update and doesn't help

Edit the same problem happens with Trusty (14.04)

The gold linker is now in the binutils package instead of binutils-gold (which is what apt-get is trying to tell you). Since you already have the package, you have the linker.
