Bug 141461 – crossdev -t x86_64 fails on i686

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Robert Mohr 2006-07-22 21:05:09 UTC]

'crossdev -t x86_64 --gcc 3.4.6 --libc 2.3.5 --kernel 2.6.16' fails on i686.  It claims I need linux headers 2.6.6 or greater, but I thought that would be covered by the --kernel line.

I realize I could probably get this working by disabling NPTL, but I'd rather keep it.

 * Warning! Gentoo's GLIBC with NPTL enabled now behaves like the
 * glibc from almost every other distribution out there. This means
 * that glibc is compiled -twice-, once with linuxthreads and once
 * with nptl. The NPTL version is installed to lib/tls and is still
 * used by default. If you do not need nor want the linuxthreads
 * fallback, you can disable this behavior by adding nptlonly to
 * USE to save yourself some compile time.
>>> Unpacking source...

 * Checking gcc for __thread support ... yes
 * Checking kernel version (>=2.6.6) ... yes
 * Checking linux-headers version (>=2.6.6) ... no

 * You need linux-headers of at least version 2.6.6
 * for NPTL support!

that glibc is not supported
