Created attachment 746601 [details, diff] patch to add package category and name options For a project I'm working on in Chrome OS, it would be useful if crossdev could be told to use a different copy of binutils and gcc than the usual sys-devel/binutils and sys-devel/gcc. I can ask crossdev to use custom package *versions* with the --binutils, --gcc, etc options. The attached patch lets me also request custom package *names* for the toolchain packages.
The bug has been closed via the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/crossdev.git/commit/?id=47ee5ddb13ec874d6f776fe720a3ece604b27f09 commit 47ee5ddb13ec874d6f776fe720a3ece604b27f09 Author: Dan Callaghan <dcallagh@google.com> AuthorDate: 2021-10-25 09:42:09 +0000 Commit: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2021-10-27 08:56:33 +0000 crossdev: add command-line options to override toolchain packages For some unusual targets, it may be desirable to use a different package name than the default. For example, a target might use picolibc instead of newlib for its libc package, or it might use a different copy of the gcc package than the usual sys-devel/gcc.
