Hi, I have a few questions.
1) I was trying to install binutils2.16 from source and it didn't make it because ld had no target. So i tried building i686-unknown-netbsdelf as target , at this point binutils compiled fine but gcc failed saying ld /export/home/cross/i686-unknown-netbsdelf/bin/ld: crtbeginS.o: No such file: No such file or directory 2) So how do i build binutils 2.16 from source and what is target . Why isn't openbsd defined in the list. What are source changes that are to be made. 3)I wanted to build gcc without propolice gcc-3.4.6. So what is the target or build instructions. 4) Which is the specific group for this, so i that i exclude other groups in future messages. 5) Is there any IRC channel for openbsd. i lurked around in freenode, but no-one gave me the exact answer of building it from source , only use the ports. I know that i can use the ports but if i want any new version of any version that is not maintained in the ports , i will have to wait until someone ports it. So if you can guide me i can try contributing . 6) I saw from the CVS that binutils 2.15 , someone had added a target obsd . I tried only adding a similar target in 2.16 but it failed saying eelf_i386_obsd.o not found. Regards Nik
