Well I certainly don't expect crush to support building packages - I
guess it was my mention of the libpango1.0-dev package that led you to
think that. Now you've pointed me in the right direction regarding the
pango config files thats fine.
On the other hand I _do_ think that simple debugging tools like strace
ltrace and maybe gdb-server would be useful (although I see that both
gdb and gdb-server are in the same package - a pity). Certainly these
are not packages I would want to install on a small flash filesystem
but on a NFS root for development why not?
I'll try to see if I get anywhere building packages for these. I have
previously cross compiled strace for arm but not with emdebian but
buildroot.
