cross-GCC 3.3 for PPC available
Greetings everyone,
I got around building myself up-to-date PA-RISC cross-compiling tools for PPC,
as Debian archives, for those who might be interested:
binutils-hppa-linux_2.14.90.0.7-1_powerpc.deb
gcc-hppa-linux_3.3.3-1_powerpc.deb
The following were also repackaged using dpkg-cross:
libdb1-compat-hppa-cross_2.1.3-7_powerpc.deb
libc6-hppa-cross_2.3.2.ds1-11_powerpc.deb
libc6-dev-hppa-cross_2.3.2.ds1-11_powerpc.deb
linux-kernel-headers-hppa-cross_2.5.999-test7-bk-15_powerpc.deb
...along with the following dummy package equivalences:
bison-hppa-cross_1.875a-1_all.deb
flex-hppa-cross_2.5.31-1_all.deb
indent-hppa-cross_2.2.9-1_all.deb
pkg-config-hppa-cross_0.15.0-1_all.deb
The above kit allows building a 2.6.5-pa8-712 kernel in less than 30 minutes, as
opposed to a whole afternoon when compiled natively on the 9000/712-60 itself.
The stanza I use with kernel-package to produce ready to install Debs is then:
CC=/usr/bin/hppa-linux-gcc make-kpkg --arch hppa --revision omena.6 kernel-image
Would the parsic-linux team be interested in hosting those specialized packages
(since they hardly stand a chance of ever being accepted by the Debian project)?
PS: if there is interest, I could package the same cross-compiling kit for i386.
