The problem is that we will rather not get cross build dependencies during next 6 months and this is required to have really easy cross compiler packages (gcc-*-armel-cross ones from my toolchain + proper binutils will be enough). Without it we still need to bootstrap cross compiler if want to build on buildd. Once we will get multi-arch headers I will work on getting cross compiler to use them as this will allow users to "easily" install target arch libraries/headers. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
