Hi frans,
In fact, I need to build completely different images for different architecture in different tmp directories. We need to do nightly build on build machine. So I think it would be better for several builds using the same one native tools set. It does not need to build native tools from zero on every time.

Hi Koen,
  Thanks for your information.
I think it will save my time. Consider I have to build several platforms
for different architecture, in fact the native tools is architecture
independent. So I think it is more reasonable to avoid building native tools
for other platforms. Is there anything wrong with me.

If you build different machines in the same tmp dir the system will
normally not rebuild native packages.
Also if it is the same architecture you won't get a new compiler (e.g.
if you have two armv5 systems).
Thinking of it, not sure what would happen if one version would insist
on using an older version of gcc

I tried to use ASSUME_PROVIDED to avoid compiling some native tools, but it seems that there are some building failure. I am trying to figure them
out.

Hi guys,
I want to configure openembedded to use the pre-built native tools.
e.g: qemu-native, quilt-native when building the whole image, so that the building can save lots of time. Is there anyone know how to achieve it?

It won't save you any time, since every tool OE builds for it self is
built for a reason. If you think a 10 minute buildtime improvement outweighs
a month more of bughunting then look into ASSUME_PROVIDED.

regards,

Koen
