Then they don't need to bootstrap. Well i downloaded that file in my toolchainbuilder, and discovered it gives the error in the build process when you don't bootstrap, like this:
cd avr-libc-1.6.4-build ../avr-libc-1.6.4/configure --prefix=$SOMEDIR --build=`../avr-libc-1.6.4/config.guess` --host=avr make && make install config.status: error: cannot find input file: avr/lib/avr25/attiny13a/Makefile.in If you do bootstrap you do not get this error, as you and Timo explained. > If you are building from CVS, then you need to use bootstrap. > This is nothing new, and it is very common to do in other projects, > like the GNU projects. For example GCC. Clear. So probably i did not expres myself clearly. I think i understand the procedures, but as it is right now, users have to bootstrap otherwise they experience the bug i encountered. Developers do not notice it, since it is 'cured' by bootstrapping. I only encountered it because my toolchainbuilder is not for developers, but for users. So i am crazy or is there indeed something that needs to be corrected?
