Hi Andy,
Depending on the package, it may or maynot be cross compiler aware. The
section you need to look at is where it is building the executable that
it's trying to run.
If you determine the package is not cross compiler aware you need to either:
* Put fixes in for this in configure/Makefiles or;
* Ask the maintainer of the package about it
* Or prevent that section running and somehow generate the
output/test results that it would make had it been run in a
non-cross environment.

This program (Gutenprint) has multiple Makefile for different modules
of the program. So, the error part of it is a sub-folder
(gutenprint-5.2.8/src/xml/) and the main program that caused the
problem is the ./extrac-strings which is compiled during the building
process and run to generate some data files. Here's the log extract
when error occurs:

As you can see here, initially it cannot execute the binary file, then
it seems to have 2nd attempt to execute it and Success followed.
However, when it tries to generate that "xmli18n-tmp.h" file, Error 1
came in...
From the Makefile and Error Log attached here, could anyone tells if
this program is cross-compiler aware and i have the luck to
cross-compile it with LTIB??
Thanks again!!

Hi Andy,
Unless you keep questions on the list, I won't answer (and no one
else can).
You need to look at configure, not the other automake scripts.
You should not need to run automake, you should use configure as-is.

Dear Stuart
After looking at the makefile.am <http://makefile.am>, there's no
clue about hostcc and buildcc. However, in makefile.in
<http://makefile.in>, there's build_triplets and host_triplets,
but i suppose it's generated from *.am via ./configure right?
If it's not cross-compiler aware, what could i modify to
differentiate the hostcc and buildcc? Could you please give me
some hints?
Besides, in LTIB exisitng packages, do you know which one has
these hostcc and buildcc feature? I might be able to pick up some
information from its makefile or even specfile....
Thanks,
Andy

Hi Andy,
You need to look in the Makefile(s) and see if they have
anything to differentiate the build host from the target
host. Often this may be something like HOSTCC or BUILDCC.
Sometimes though there's nothing if the file is not tailored
for cross compiling.

Hi all,
Has anyone successfully build/LTIB Gutenprint?
Here are the log file of "./ltib -m scbuild -p
gutenprint.spec" and the .spec file i've generated from
template.
It seems like there's slight problem running binary file
within the building/making process. It's trying to run the
binary and generate the xmli18n-tmp.h file in /src/xml folder.
Any idea to suppress this kind of problem where make process
involves running binary programs to generate data??
