You have been subscribed to a public bug by Jamie Bennett (jamiebennett): This is a request for freeze exception for including a set of new packages in maverick: armel-cross-toolchain-base, armel-cross-toolchain, and gcc-defaults-armel-cross. These packages build-depend on the eglibc, GCC, and binutils source and provide a set of Ubuntu-style packages containing cross-compilers for the armel architecture.
These packages are currently staged in a ppa at https://launchpad.net/~hrw/+archive/arm-cross-compiler/, and a git repository is available at <git://github.com/hrw/linaro-armel-cross- toolchain.git>. These packages are widely useful to anyone doing development work targeting ARM systems, few of which have resources today for native builds. As entirely new packages, the risks from late inclusion to the archive are minimal; nevertheless it was our intention to get these in before feature freeze, but delivery has slipped because of a dependency on the various fixes needed in the base toolchain packages to support this, so a FFe is now needed. If the FFe is not granted, the packages will continue to be distributed via PPA. ** Affects: linaro Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed -- FFe: armel-cross-toolchain{,-base}, gcc-defaults-armel-cross https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/634494 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Linaro Release Team, which is a direct subscriber. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~linaro-release Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~linaro-release More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
