Hi all, I recently started playing with mingw32 - Minimalist GNU win32 (cross) compiler. This allows me to write a GTK frontend to go along with a console backend for telescope control, and compile an .exe for windows and a ELF for linux very easily (both from linux). I started thinking about cross compiling in general, and I wonder why Debian doesn't have cross compile packages (I imagine its a disk space issue?) If we did, we wouldn't need to compile m68k on m68k; in fact, we could just compile everything on x86 (if need be). And we wouldn't have a month long compile queue. Correct me if I'm way off target here, this is new ground for me. Thanks, Justin
