My name is Basil. I am trying to port the freetype library to a arm
development board. I am using the arm cross compiler executable
arm-none-linux-gnueabi and i followed the instructions in INSTALL.CROSS but
i am unable to create a configuration file for freetype.

This is the input i have given
ba...@bas:~/Desktop/Freetype/
freetype-2.3.11$ ./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu
--host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi

The output i got was

FreeType build system -- automatic system detection

The following settings are used:

  platform                    unix
  compiler                    cc
  configuration directory     ./builds/unix
  configuration rules         ./builds/unix/unix.mk

If this does not correspond to your system or settings please remove the
file
`config.mk' from this directory then read the INSTALL file for help.

Otherwise, simply type `make' again to build the library,
or `make refdoc' to build the API reference (the latter needs python).

cd builds/unix; ./configure  '--build=i686-pc-linux-gnu'
'--host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi'
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... arm-none-linux-gnueabi
checking for arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc... arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error: in
`/home/basil/Desktop/Freetype/freetype-2.3.11/builds/unix':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
make: *** [setup] Error 77

Kindly let me know whether i am missing any step in the process
