Crossdev 0.9-r3 fails while running the configure script for glibc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. crossdev --target sparc 2. 3. Actual Results: checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c checking whether ln -s works... yes checking for sparc-pc-linux-gnu-gcc... sparc-pc-linux-gnu-gcc checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile See `config.log' for more details. Expected Results: A working toolchain.

Please provide the config.log. Also, pleasse try glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1 I don't use crossdev... I just do it manually using cross-* categories, and I've got a sparc cross toolchain.

I get the same error using the glibc version you asked me to try.
you need to have ~x86 on your host system's toolchain
Updated my host-system toolchain to ~x86, but I still get the same error.
hmm... well this looks crossdev related... my advice, just don't use crossdev... follow Spanky's guide here: http://dev.gentoo.org/~vapier/CROSS-COMPILE-HOWTO I will be updating that guide with specific notes for multilib targets (and sparc is a bit tricky)... also, some of the weird hacks there (USE=arch, etc) aren't needed any more with more recent versions...
I followed the howto at http://dev.gentoo.org/~vapier/CROSS-COMPILE-HOWTO and got the same error while emerging glibc which means that this is not a crossdev-related bug at all, and that something else is wrong with my system.
please `rm -r /home/crossdev` and try again
The configure line is highly suspicious to me: ../configure --prefix=/home/crossdev/sparc --host=sparcv9-unknown-linux-gnu --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --without-tls --without-__thread --enable-add-ons=linuxthreads --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-kernel=2.4.16 --without-gd --without-cvs --disable-profile --disable-debug --with-headers=/home/crossdev/sparc/include CC=sparc-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -O2 -nostdlib -nostartfiles -mcpu=v9 -mtune=v9 -O2 -pipe build_alias=i686-pc-linux-gnu host_alias=sparcv9-unknown-linux-gnu --no-create --no-recursion What version of glibc are youu trying to build for the sparc target. I've only verified that 2.3.4.20050125-r1 works for the sparc target. Older versions won't work right because of CHOST mangling.
SpanKY: deleted /home/crossdev and tried again... still no go. Jeremy:The glibc version I'm trying to build is indeed 2.3.4.20050125-r1 I have no idea what to look for next since I virtually don't know anything about this cross toolchain sortathing.
ok, executing the following should give you a working crosscompiler. If not, pleasse check gcc-config and binutils-config. If that doesn't correct it, please Attatch the config.log for the failed emerge. emerge -v \=cross-sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/binutils-2.15.92.0.2-r2 USE=build emerge -v \=cross-sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-3.4.3.20050110 emerge -v \=cross-sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/linux-headers-2.6.10 emerge -v \=cross-sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1 emerge -v \=cross-sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1 emerge -v \=cross-sparc-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-3.4.3.20050110

Yep. It's from $(tc-arch) returning sparc for both sparc64 and sparc. This should now be fixed in cvs.
