Package: src:binutils-cross
Version: 0.1
Severity: serious
binutils-cross is now in unstable, however there was no discussion about the
general target to provide a cross toolchain in Debian (at least not on the
debian-cross or debian-gcc ML's). This should be done first before any cross
toolchain component enters testing/jessie.

This subject has, since this bug was filed, been discussed in some
detail at the bootstrap/cross sprint. Results reported in:
https://wiki.debian.org/Sprints/2014/BootstrapSprint/Results (and
mailed to debian-devel announce):
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2014/08/msg00013.html )
There is also now a general wiki page at:
https://wiki.debian.org/CrossToolchains
This will be adjusted to reflect reality for jessie and beyond as it develops.
The existing cross-binutils packages are not controversial, and are
already useful with llvm (which does not need special cross-builds the
way that gcc does). They should migrate to testing. They are
compatible with both within-arch and multiarch-built cross gcc
packages so do not affect that issue.
