Hello, When trying to build a cross compiler i get an error:
dh_makeshlibs -plibgcc1-arm-cross -V 'libgcc1-arm-cross (>= 1:4.2.1)' -n sed s/-arm-cross//g < debian/libgcc1-arm-cross/DEBIAN/shlibs > debian/libgcc1-arm-cross/DEBIAN/shlibs.fixed mv debian/libgcc1-arm-cross/DEBIAN/shlibs.fixed debian/libgcc1-arm-cross/DEBIAN/shlibs cat debian/libgcc1-arm-cross/DEBIAN/shlibs >> debian/shlibs.local ARCH=arm MAKEFLAGS="CC=something" dh_shlibdeps -plibgcc1-arm-cross dpkg-shlibdeps: failure: couldn't find library libc.so.6 (note: only packages with 'shlibs' files are looked into). dh_shlibdeps: command returned error code 512 make[1]: *** [stamps/08-binary-stamp-libgcc] Error 1 I'm using: ii dpkg-dev 1.14.11 What would be the prefered way to fix this failure? Adding --ignore-missing-info flag on gcc-4.2 source code?
