As a way to get a compiler, it's more difficult than untarring the one from kernel.org, which was the effort I've been willing to invest so far. I would consider installing the Debian Testing compiler in the form of a container, if one was available. Or I could just update my cross-compiler build scripts again, but that solution doesn't get the upstream project much closer to the ideal solution, i.e. a convenient, reliable "reference" compiler. That would require supported compiler and distro releases. Certainly Debian's gcc-5-m68k-linux-gnu or gcc-6-m68k-linux-gnu packages are good candidates for building a container, and time permitting, I would willingly test them and isolate and report any bugs I found. -- > > Adrian > > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
