I think this is good news generally speaking, unfortunately that straight forward for me: I insist on using and testing the toolchain on GNU/Linux platform (Debian). I hope to have something useful for other people soon. For the moment I'm interested in the packaging aspects of the toolchain. Anyway, thanks for the effort. > > major changes are: > - added recent F2xx devices I think you mentioned this some little time ago. I believe I know the ropes about this patch.

I see that gdb-5.1.1 code/patch is latest up-to-date available in CVS. I was very interested in running a more recent version of gdb, latest released if possible. Are the patches needed to use at least gdb 6.7.1 available anywhere? It would be easier for me to port gdb 6.7.1 patches to the latest gdb version than porting from gdb 5.1.1. > - insight, the gdb gui, is back > - msp430-downloader fix I guess not much advantage in hardware access (i.e.: programming, debugging) in GNU/Linux can be taken from that, right?
