Hello everyone,
I have been trying to get Gentoo to run on the Atmel AT91RM9200
processor that I have on a custom board. So far, I have managed to
cross compile quite a few packages (some requiring help) for the
processor but when it comes to Python, I get the following error:
>>> Verifying ebuild Manifests...
>>> Emerging (1 of 1) dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6 to

* ERROR: dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6 failed.
* Call stack:
* ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_unpack
* environment, line 3466: Called die
* The specific snippet of code:
* [[ $(python -V 2>&1) != "Python ${PV}" ]] && die
"Crosscompiling requires the same host and build versions.";
* The die message:
* Crosscompiling requires the same host and build versions.
*
* If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack
if relevant.
* A complete build log is located at
'/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6/temp/build.log'.
* The ebuild environment file is located at
'/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6/temp/environment'.
It seems to be complaining about requiring the host and build versions
to be the same. I am really confused by this since I am building the
system on an x86. I've been looking thru the past messages on this list
and haven't found anything like this yet (I may have missed it). Has
anyone encountered this before and know a solution?
I've also posted to the Gentoo Forums but in a message it suggested that
I might try asking this list.
