It works for arm, x86 and amd64 which are the only targets that I've tried for myself. I suspect it doesn't support some of the more obscure architectures. Obviously it doesn't (and isn't intended to) support non ELF targets, though I can't think of any such in OE. One slightly annoying thing is that (e)glibc isn't buildable with gold because the linker scripts don't work. So a little bit of patching is going to be needed to have it use ld.bfd there. There might be some other packages with similar issues but I haven't come across any yet. p. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
