Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has managed to successfully compile a
GDC cross compiler to target the Raspberry Pi?
I tried following the instructions found at
http://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/wiki/crosstool-ng but when I
try the "ct-ng build" command I get the following output:
[INFO ] Performing some trivial sanity checks
[INFO ] Build started 20120613.010123
[INFO ] Building environment variables
[ERROR] Static linking impossible on the host system
'x86_64-build_unknown-linux-gnu'
[00:02] / make: *** [build] Error 1
Should I continue along the path of using crosstools to make a
cross compiler, and if so; how? Or is there a better way to
achieve my end goal of having a cross compiler targeting the
Raspberry Pi?
Thanks in advance for any help :-)
I tried to build it as a cross compiler and on the raspberry
directly - and faild at both. On the raspberry I got a compiler
crash, and the cross compiler build process produced random
errors - it seems to be very fragile in terms of library versions
and such.
...so I would also be very interested in any sucess stories.
