Re: Cross-compiler tool chain

Hi,

> What are you planning to do?
The plan is to have one host machine that has a unified (all the same versions) set of GCC and a libc (not necessarily glibc) that can be used to build our product for different platforms.

Potentially distcc would be used to speed up the builds.

Thanks, I'll look into that.

I should also note that I found crosstool-ng, which goes into the right direction. However, in my case the target architectures *and* platforms differ, so we aren't just talking of builds for Linux.

> Official Debian packages are built natively on the target architecture.
Alright, I didn't know. I would imagine that is pretty slow for some architectures, given the amount of code to be translated.


Thanks,
