Dpkg-cross is a lot about choosing the right (cross)-compiler, it is therefore better to switch compilers than to try dpkg-cross let handle the changes, no? That is the way I see it anyway, because it makes dpkg-cross independent from the toolchain, c-library or whatever, increasing flexibility. regards, Philippe | Philippe De Swert -GNU/linux - uClinux freak- | | Stag developer http://stag.mind.be/ | Emdebian developer: http://www.emdebian.org | | Please do not send me documents in a closed format.
