dpkg-cross, dpkg-architecture and arch names
I noticed that dpkg-cross didn't automatically recognise armel when
provided with an updated dpkg-architecture.
This is because it has its own table of debian->gnu arch names:
'i386' => 'i486-linux-gnu',
'sparc' => 'sparc-linux-gnu',
'sparc64' => 'sparc-linux-gnu',
'alpha' => 'alpha-linux-gnu',
'm68k' => 'm68k-linux-gnu',
'arm' => 'arm-linux-gnu',
'armeb' => 'armeb-linux-gnueabi',
'armel' => 'arm-linux-gnueabi',
'powerpc' => 'powerpc-linux-gnu',
'ppc' => 'powerpc-linux-gnu',
'mips' => 'mips-linux-gnu',
'mipsel' => 'mipsel-linux-gnu',
'sh3' => 'sh3-linux-gnu',
'sh4' => 'sh4-linux-gnu',
'sh3eb' => 'sh3eb-linux-gnu',
'sh4eb' => 'sh4eb-linux-gnu',
'hppa' => 'hppa-linux-gnu',
'hurd-i386' => 'i386-gnu',
's390' => 's390-linux-gnu',
's390x' => 's390-linux-gnu',
'ia64' => 'ia64-linux-gnu',
'm32r' => 'm32r-linux-gnu',
'openbsd-i386' => 'i386-openbsd',
'freebsd-i386' => 'i386-freebsd',
'darwin-powerpc' => 'powerpc-darwin',
'darwin-i386' => 'i386-darwin',
'win32-i386' => 'i386-cygwin',
'amd64' => 'x86_64-linux-gnu')
Now it seems to me that it would be more sensible to use
dpkg-architecture to make this table. However dpkg-architecture (with
guillem's triplet patch ported forward to 1.13.25) has a somewhat
different table of arches. (See below - it's rather long).
Is there a definitive list of debian arches somewhere?
The default list (on both patched and unpatched versions) includes a
lot of arches that make little sense (like bsd-darwin-sh3,
kfreebsd-s390) and doesn't include at least one that is useful for
cross-building: win32-i386. (for use with mingw32 I think).
And all the bsd-based arches have different names, prefixed by bsd. So
openbsd-i386 is bsd-openbsd-i386. I think this amounts to a bug
introduced in the triplet patch (it doesn't happen in the old version)
and should be changed to be implied in the debian arch name, as linux
is on many arches.
There are also a load of gnuaebi-linux-foo arches which are clearly
bollocks and need removing. And armel appearing twice is supicious
too. Not sure where that is coming from.
And another datapoint is that the gcc built allows a target of avr
which isn't in the list at all.
I thought I should check before trying to work out how to fix things.
Guillem's post just now suggesting that we merge dpkg-cross into dpkg
is part of the answer, but we still need a definitive list somewhere.
Should dpkg support all possible arches or just ones that really exist
to some degree (and if so what degree).
Here is the output: dpkg-architecture -L with dpkg 1.13.25 with
guillem 'triplet' patch:
