This is great - but:
Well I just tried it. Of course it didn't compile - the glibc configure
failed with:
checking for growing stack pointer... configure: error: cannot run
test program while cross compiling
And the package gstreamer_tibuild.tar.gz wasn't on the web site for
download.
Anyone else have a problem building this?
Steve
