We are carefully working on a roadmap, because uClibc is not backwards compatible (yet) and we are also working on a new config system which we want to implement at the same time. So we don't have two backward incompatible changes after eachother. >In all cases, have choices regarding binutils/gcc been made ? >(which were the apps requiring gcc 3.3 ?) > Binutils is updated to version 1.16.1 and we would like to update gcc (to version 3.4.x because the kernel doesn't support 4.x) . We have some problems to update gcc, but are working on a solution. This is an area where help is welcome. Ofcourse testing is also welcome. >What about using uclibc's buildroot to build the toolchain ? That may >be tricky to integrate in buildtool but reusing their work sounds >logical.

I don't see a real need to replace it, it's just a development tool which is well tested. > >Regards, >Cedric > Regards, Eric _______________________________________________ leaf-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
