I *built* most of Emdebian on a G3, including cross-building toolchains for armel. > Setting up both grip and pbuild can be confusing at times. I see no need for any of this. What packages are you trying to build? Any package which is already in Debian can simply be processed through the Grip scripts. $ sudo apt-get install emdebian-grip $ man apt-grip All the other packages just come from Emdebian as normal using the existing powerpc support. The only time to actually build anything is if you have packages which are not already in Debian. Then, your solution is: 0: Introduce the package into Debian, or 1: Build the package using dpkg-buildpackage as normal and then process with emgrip DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="usegrip" emgrip foo_1.2.3_powerpc.deb It would have helped if you had explained this beforehand as other comments are written from the perspective of building packages on a system already running Emdebian Grip. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
