well, this is Lennart and Kay, I know them and the history of libabc. To put in context, the idea was to enlighten all the kernel developers how to do stuff in userspace as most of them really invented something new (not even kbuild, but their own Makefiles with shell scripts). But I get your point. let's give people few more weeks to get it ready for once and for all, it now we can go back. >> (BTW, for cross compile we will need two builds of Soletta as we use some >> built binaries to generate other files we use.

If you know a Kbuild standard way let them know (Leandro Dorileo is the one doing it). -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri -------------------------------------- Mobile: +55 (19) 99225-2202 Contact: http://www.gustavobarbieri.com.br/contact _______________________________________________ Celinux-dev mailing list Celinux-dev@lists.celinuxforum.org https://lists.celinuxforum.org/mailman/listinfo/celinux-dev
