Hi, I recently had to deal with exactly this problem. An easy way to solve this is to do the opposite of what you have done. On your PC, mv /usr/local to something like /usr/local_intel and then create a symbolic link to the usr/local on your target system.
i.e. on your HOST PC cd /usr mv local local_intel ln -s /home/srinirao/buildsystem/arm/target/usr/local local Then, set prefix=/usr/local I found this to be the best way (or at least a way) since some of the packages (for GTK) hardcode library paths, and you're screwed if it uses your host system's path.

I can run dfbinfo and df_input test applications on the target, as in this case the directory structure is maintained similar to my home folder. However, i cannot run these applications on target board, even after copying all libraries generated under /home/srinirao/buildsystem/arm/target/ on my build pc to target board's Root file system's /usr/local/lib folder. Even setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/lib folder doesnot help. It generates the following error message. (*) DirectFB/Core: Single Application Core. (2007-10-03 14:59) (!) DirectFB/core/system: No system found! main.c <79>:(#) DirectFBError [DirectFBCreate (&dfb)]: No (suitable) implementation found! I googled couple of threads that speaks about setting CROSS_COMPILE_PREFIX during compilation. Has anyone encountered such problem related with redirectory structure in their target rfs ? In the above example if i create a directory similar to my build pc it works fine. ie on board: mkdir -p /home/srinirao/buildsystem/arm/target/ cd /home/srinirao/buildsystem/arm/target/ ln -s /usr/local/lib . ... it works fine. But i donot want have this dependency of my home folder on target rfs. Any solutions ? regards, Srinivas Rao. M -- Srinivas Rao M Hamse<http://msrinirao.blogspot.com>
