try 

lafilefixer --justfixit

then try revdep-rebuild again

Check if you have /etc/ld.so.conf.d/05binutils and not
/etc/env.d/00glibc ( this file should contain LDPATH="include
ld.so.conf.d/*.conf" ), if so - rebuild glibc. If this is not the case,
maybe try lafilefixer --justfixit.

I have the same problem and I think the problem is revdep-rebuild.
binutils is just working fine and revdep-rebuild just thinks that it is
broken, because it doesnt check the right librarypath
(/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/lib). I tried your suggestion (rebuild glibc)
and it doesnt work. But I noticed something interesting:

cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/05binutils.conf 
/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/lib

cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/local/lib
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
[...]

I think this is normal. But when I start revdep-rebuild -v I get

revdep-rebuild environment:
SEARCH_DIRS="/bin
include
ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/lib
/lib64
/opt/bin
[...]

So I guess the include-Statement should load the files under
ld.so.conf.d but it looks like its interpreted as a normal path

I tried all, and nothing seemed to solve the problem.
I'm at a loss as to what this could be.
When it says "requires -liberty" is liberty part of a package? I am not
sure what it means by -liberty and were to acquire it.

Anyways thanks for the help so far.

The library's name is iberty. The -l part is saying that it is a
library. 

http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libiberty/

I don't have access to my gentoo computer at the moment, so I can't
tell you where that comes from. But it is probably from either glibc,
gcc, or libstdc++. I expect the previous poster who told you to
remerge glibc knew the answer :)

But if I am reading revdep-rebuild output correctly, it means that
your binutils is compiled to be linked against that library. But the
library cannot be found by revdep-rebuild. Hence the error.

libiberty.a comes from binutils.
Looking at Stefan revdep-rebuild environment output it seems that
revdep-rebuild doesn't handle 'include wildcard' statements in
ld.so.conf. This bug is already reported #298651.

Much of the conversation on bugzilla went over my head
Is there a known workaround a non-developer or non-tech-genius might employ?
