Hey, I want to set up a cross-development environment for an embedded mips target. I grabbed the toolchain-source package. Ran "tpkg-make mips", which generated a binutils-mips and gcc-mips in /usr/src. Went into binutils-mips, debuild, debi, all good. However, I enter gcc-mips, debuild, and the linker dies complaining that it can't find crti.o. Part of glibc, which I have no MIPS build of. Fine. To check that everything was working okay, I changed the debian/rules script to configure gcc with --disable-shared. With this, the build completed, but it seems at this point I should compile glibc so that i can recompile gcc with --enable-shared.
Is there a standard way to do this, to keep consistency with the Debian process? Or do I just grab glibc, configure for mips, make, install somwhere, and then rebuild the gcc debian package with --enable-shared? Sorry if I'm missing something. I'm new to this and finding straightforward documentation is difficult. -- Ryan Underwood, <nemesis at icequake.net>, icq=10317253 jabber=nemesis at jabber.icequake.net http://www.icequake.net/~nemesis |= icequake networks, ltd. =|= university of missouri rolla =| |= system administration =|= computer science =|
