Hello, Problem description: On ftp.rfc822.org, in ftp://ftp.rfc822.org/pub/local/debian-mips/experimental/ there is a base with glibc2.0.6 which does work on the indy. Most of the packages there require 2.1.95 though, and on ftp.debian.org also.
When trying to install 2.1.95 it fails because I lack libnss-db. So for now my only option is creating a total cross development environment on another machine, which is rather strange because why are there then that much debian packages available when I can't get them working ? Questions: Does anybody knows a way to build a base.tar.gz from a couple of .deb packages? (couldn't find any documentation about that on the debian website). Does anybody knows a way to install the 2.1.95 and all those newer packages ? Is there a problem with building libnss-db ? I would like to have a build environment running on my indy, is the jump bug with gas I heard about still an open issue ? Does anyone has already X running with debian on an indy ? :) Thank you very much for your time, Ulrik De Bie Wintermute
