Hi,

i am following the archlinux steps.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/msp430-elf-newlib/

So it would come from upstream as well.

What about the C library/newlib? I know TI also provides newlib. Where 
would newlib come from if we used vanilla GCC?


Regards,

Juan.

I agree with Marian here! Don't use anything provided by TI :)

Hi!

That's what I meant with philosophy ;-)

And +1 for vanilla from me as well.

Thanks

Hi,

I'd personally go the vanilla version, but not for philosophical reasons. My
reasons would be:

- More consistent to other toolchains (no TI specific stuff)
- Does not rely on TI for future updates (in case TI looses interest in
  maintaining their on version)

So +1 for vanilla GCC.

Kind regards,
Marian
