Hi Luigi et all, External toolchain support, based on my previous patches & and your additions, was committed in r17682.
Here's what I changed : - use target name for naming build & staging directories, instead on "unknown" gcc/libc versions - use the same way of specifying libraries in ./package/base-files for external & native toolchains - make the toolchain options menu "disappear" when external toolchain support is selected I'll check the changes in ./package later today as it seems some of them have no effects (in hotplug & uci iirc) Thanks again for your help !
