I'm not able of understanding the differences between the toolchains
just from their name, and the Debian packages don't contain any useful
information...
The toolchains for which I need more information are the following ones:
scratchbox-toolchain-arm-linux-2006q1-6_1.0.4_i386.deb
scratchbox-toolchain-arm-linux-cs344-2.3_1.0.4_i386.deb
scratchbox-toolchain-arm-linux-ct401-2.3_1.0.4_i386.deb
scratchbox-toolchain-cs2005q3.2-glibc-arm_1.0.4_i386.deb
scratchbox-toolchain-cs2005q3.2-glibc-arm_1.0.5_i386.deb
Any explanation is very welcome.
there seem to be two kinds of toolchains available,
crosstool (ct) / codesourcery (cs)
Thank you very much. At least I know what these acronyms mean :)
As a rule of thumb, anything with a year, q and a number is a code
sourcery toolchain.
The cs2005q3.2-glibc-arm is a repackaged legacy branch toolchain and you
should not use it unless you know you specifically need that particular
toolchain.
For your architecture, you'd probably want crosstool. See [1] for
additional details. Use instructions in [2] to compile a custom foreign
toolchain if none of the prepackaged toolchains meet your needs.
There is an article about compiling x for arm architecture available at
[3], you might find it interesting.
The configurations used in building the foreign toolchain can be found
in the toolchain packages under /scratchbox/compiler-name/build-config.
