[10:15] is this the so called ppu target? [15:14] doko: Hi. No not ppu [15:14] At the moment I'm just trying to build powerpc/powerpc64 cross compiler [15:14] so I can compile the powerpc64-smp kernel on x86 [15:25] did you see debian/Readme.cross? [15:32] doko: Yes that's what I'm following [15:33] I've pulled across all the arch specific deps needed using apt-cross (although I had to fix some stuff to get that to work on Ubuntu) [15:33] I've managed to build binutils fine [15:34] I've got both the required 32 and 64 bit libs all installed under /usr/powerpc-linux-gnu/* by dpkg-cross [15:35] doko: if you've done this before and it worked for you just say and I'll head back to the drawing board [15:36] otherwise I need to find out why it's not including /usr/powerpc-linux-gnu/lib64/ on the linker search path too [15:38] no, never looked at this myself. closed thing was to build the cell-gcc packages. anyway, patches welcome ;) [15:50] doko: ok understood I'll plug away till I find the problem [15:50] thx [19:14] doko, If he's doing x86->ppc biarch, I think it's correct that it wouldn't do lib64. [19:15] The implementation of --with-sysroot still confuses me. I keep wishing they had done it as if a partition were mounted into the filesystem. [19:15] So treat all symlinks as magical from that point, etc. [20:03] doko, Don't we have biarch packages for libx11 on amd64? I thought we did. [20:08] Oh, I see. ia32-libs-dev doesn't get built for us. Hrm.
