There is a cross gcc Debian package, which is quite easy to use. Thank Santiago for that. Name: gcc-i386-gnu, version 1.3-1. Rafael, there are gnumach and hurd Debian packages on the ftp site, how about using them instead rolling your own versions? > RCdS> What should I do? > > I'm trying to put together a glibc-2.1 package for Debian GNU/Hurd, > and when that's finished we should gain a lot more momentum. Gordon, I didn't knew that! We should coordinate our efforts, I've access to libc CVS and wanted to start on the Debian package, too :) (Note that I have made the glibc2 2.0.4 package, so we can work from that). Please mail me about this. Marcus -- "Rhubarb is no Egyptian god."
