https://github.com/landley/mkroot has a toolchain build script that configures Rich Felker's musl-cross-make for several architecture targets. There are binaries of the output at http://mkroot.musl.cc/mcm-i686-gcc-7.3.0/ if you want to skip the source build. (What mkroot itself does is build minimal boot-to-a-shell-prompt systems for each of those architectures.) I'm also engaging with the Android NDK guys to try to get that fleshed out a bit more as a bionic build toolchain. I don't have any glibc variants, but in theory there are debian toolchains for that?

I'm vaguely trying to do something like LFS for Android: https://landley.net/toybox/about.html But that's a longish-term project aimed at a moving target... My previous project along these lines was a lot closer to LFS: https://landley.net/aboriginal/about.html Rob _______________________________________________ Clfs-dev mailing list Clfs-dev@lists.clfs.org http://lists.clfs.org/listinfo.cgi/clfs-dev-clfs.org
