This includes the ABI (h), adds the endianess (l), and implies a architecture level (v7). The name for the most common configurations should be as short as possible so I'd rather drop the 'l' and add a 'b' or 'eb' if anyone wants a big endian distro in the future. The architecture level is a problem as the loader should also be valid on ARMv5 and ARMv6 hard float builds. Skype should be able to make a hard float binary that runs on everything, including a potential ARMv6 hard float RaspberryPi build. > Other variant could be > > /armv7hl-linux/lib/ld.so.3 This introduces both a new directory and a new style for naming :) -- Michael _______________________________________________ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
