Toolchain status (squeeze)

[Hector Oron <hector.oron@gmail.com>]

Hello,

  Emdebian cross toolchains for squeeze are already available in the repository:

   "deb http://emdebian.org/debian squeeze main"

  Available compilers are gcc-4.3 and gcc-4.4 for all the official
Debian architectures.

  Limitations
  ========
  There are a couple missing compilers from the full set which are
gcc-4.4/hppa and gcc-4.3/ia64, which should be fixed at some point in
the future.

  If using cross gdb, you might experience problems as gdb enables
sysroot (/usr/$triplet) whether cross toolchains are not sysroot
aware. A workarround that might do the trick could be setting up
symlinks to create a symlinked sysroot, i.e:
/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/usr/lib -> /usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/lib;
/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/usr/include -> /usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/include.
Apologies for any inconvenience.

  Unstable (not yet available) should be available by the beginning of
this week including part of the debian-ports architectures (sh4, armhf
and powerpcspe).

  Daily/Current status can be followed at: http://emdebian.org/~zumbi/toolchain/
