"Last time I tried it" a few weeks ago it was unable to build the 1,100 packages it decided it wanted to build before it would do anything useful: it choked on more than one but the one that made me throw my hands in the air was when it failed on building build host native dbus libs. (Of course it didn't need to build any of them since they are sitting in the repo in packages already built). All I wanted to do then was compile something else against target tslib libs (same as we talk about now by coincidence). But it insisted to build host dbus libs, and after some hours churning away found it couldn't. "Experimental" near-release development branch Fedora - and me - got the blame at the time, but Fedora can compile itself with its tools and this is not the first cross build system I used. When the happy day comes it can compile against -dev packages on the build host, and not build even 1 extra package let alone 1,100, I'll try it again: until then userspace on openmoko is closed to me unless I am going to build it by hand, which is what I ended up doing on dm2. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkhaQfgACgkQOjLpvpq7dMq3fQCfUQpOCBgmFlw466OPFMSy369J gREAmwVrK4nC69qh62FkfxVPH7jf9TJi =eJka -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
