Bug 208503 – using crossdev m68k-unknown-linux-gnu doesn't work for gcc but does for binutils

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED LATER

[Description Alan Hourihane 2008-02-01 21:10:38 UTC]

Seems as though the m68k keyword needs adding to a sys-devel/gcc ebuild. Preferably gcc-4.2.2.



Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "cross-m68k-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc" have been 
masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:

I've added m68k to 4.2.2 myself, but then glibc compilation fails because of kernel header checks that are wrong for 2.6 kernel headers.....

checking installed Linux kernel header files... TOO OLD!^M

The kernel header files are found usually in /usr/include/asm and^M

actually get a working toolchain combo and we can talk about KEYWORDS

I have.
