Bug#383720: RFP: psptoolchain -- Compiler and set of tools for making software for Sony PSP (Playstation Portable)



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist


* Package name    : psptoolchain
  Version         : 1.0b2
* URL             : http://ps2dev.org/psp/Projects/PSPSDK/PSPSDK_1.0+beta2_(Source) http://ps2dev.org/psp/Tools/Toolchain/psptoolchain-20060120
* License         : BSD compatible
  Programming Lang: C, C++
  Description     : Compiler and set of tools for making software for Sony PSP (Playstation Portable)

Psptoolchian is a set of tools: binutils, gcc, pspsdk(libs) and tools
for packing "eboots" (psp packages) for Sony PSP,
but it's a bit hard to build by hand (needs many libraries, patched
binutils and gcc) and it's very long (10-15 hours). It would be great
to be able to install 'automagically' all these tools!

I think the toolchain should be divided into many packages:
psp-binutils
psp-gcc
libpspsdk
psp-utils
and a virtual package to install all this stuff.

The source of two fisrt packages can be found on the second given URL:
patchs for gcc and binutils, and the pspsdk with tools and libs are on
the first URL.

I have never build debian packages, so to pack all this software would
be to difficult for me, but I can co-maintain and help the developper
who would adopt these packages (C, pre/post/inst/rm scripts, and
testing the software compiled with psptoolchain on my PSP).
