Hi,

please be patient with me, cross-compilation is completely new to me.

I have an x86_64 host with opensuse 13.1 and want to cross-compile my own 
linux system for a raspberry pi.

In my opensuse-repositories I found the two packages 

cross-arm-binutils (2.23.2-8.1.2)
cross-armv7hl-gcc48-icecream-backend (4.8.1_20130909-3.2.1)

>From what I unterstand, I should be able to cross-compile a linux system for 
armv7 after installing these two packages. Is this correct? In [1] it is 
stated that "openSUSE does not currently ship a cross-compiler for ARM." which 
is -- as far as I understand this  -- a contradiction.

Ref [1] describes another solution which seems suboptimal to me.

And from [2] I gather that cross-compilation currently does not work. This 
thread, however, deals with other versions of the packages given above.  Do I 
have to expect the same problems?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Regards,
Karl
