Hi,

The packaging module in CVS contains the build files for the Windows installer I produced. It contains a .spec file for an RPM for binutils. I'm trying to get around to making .spec files for the other parts of mspgcc. Your script seems like a sensible addition to that area. One thing, though. The binutils-2.11 stuff is out of date. You should be using a recent snapshot of binutils from sources.redhat.com. These have the MSP430 stuff integrated now, and there are bug fixes in there which are missing from the binutils-2.11 in the mspgcc CVS. The CVS stuff is no longer updated. We should probably add something to CVS to mark it as obsolete.

Someone really needs the time to revise the build information on the web site.

Regards,
Steve

you have an old build laying around that needs the rm'ing, which is why I
missed that.  It's welcome to be posted.  If so, I'd like to add a 'written

Thanks. This works really well, and even points out where I
was going wrong
(as I suspected, wrong source). One working script is worth
any amount of
instructions.

There is a small bug in the script at line 81, which reads:

\rm-rf gcc-3.2.2

missing a space, should be

\rm -rf gcc-3.2.2

I don't know if this is in the original, or a transmission glitch.

This should, with the author's permission, be put up on the
site; it will save
newbies a lot of time.

Thanks again for a great script,
rick
