Hi, Attaching an ebuild for the GNU Toolchain and GDB part of the IBM SDK for Multicore Acceleration V3.0 (Developer package), to be included in the cell overlay. Hopefully I will have other SDK components ebuilds soon. This is useful for many applications out there that require the SDK to be built (incompatible with current experimental GNU sources). It might be useful for programmers working for teams where the SDK is required. For that reason (and to make things much simpler), this fetches the standard binary rpm's instead of src.rpm's. When the GNU version is stable and more used, this can be erased. Note: the dependencies weren't that checked, supposedly they are the same as vanilla gnu, which was I wrote on the ebuild. Nelson

this is out of scope for the ppc64 team. you might get an overlay on overlays.gentoo.org if you want to. Maybe even the cell overlay could be 'abused' for this kind of stuff. If you're interested then please contact ppc64@gentoo.org or join #gentoo-powerpc on Freenode IRC so we can get in touch. [ My personal opinion is that building these tools from source is the supperiour method of installing them. cell releated patches should go upstream and packages that rely on the location of packages in /opt/ibm/ are broken anyways! ]
