Bug#733674: libnewlib-arm-none-eabi: missing symlink causes arm-none-eabi-gcc to fail
Hi Agustin, In a message of Thu, 02 Jan 2014 20:45:32 -0300, Agustin Henze writes: gcc-arm-none-eabi expects a /usr/lib/arm-none-eabi/include symlink pointing to /usr/include/newlib if libnewlib-arm-none-eabi is to be usable. I think the package ought to provide the symlink. the main idea of gcc-arm-none-eabi is to allow choose the C standard library that you want. With this in mind if you want to use newlib as C standard library in your project then you need to add the path pointing to newlib (the path that you mentioned above) in your list of include paths. For clarify you can do this in gcc with -I/usr/include/newlib. Almost, you want to use -isystem, but I see your point. I still think it would be better to set it up to work without special flags for gcc (and use update-alternatives to allow selecting which of several install libc's should be default), so it works out of the box. You could also set up someplace to point gcc's -sysroot flag to select an alternate libc. /Anders -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

For clarify you can do this in gcc with -I/usr/include/newlib. I'm working to upload newlib-nano that is a fork of newlib project with some improvements for bare metal development. So you can choose the C standard library that best suits to your needs. And there are many other C standard libraries that you could choose.
