Description Rodolfo Schulz de Lima 2005-06-23 09:10:32 UTC

cross dev doesn't build the g++ compiler even when we use the -s3 switch.
I'm compiling a i586-pc-linux-gnu in a 1686-pc-linux-gnu machine. I think is the
same with other cross-compiling.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

Oh yes, I'm using gcc-3.4.4

Hmm, I'd say that you don't need crossdev for this at all...

Comment 3 Rodolfo Schulz de Lima 2005-06-23 12:46:48 UTC

I know it's a little too much. I even found out another way to do it. But a i586
compiler is needed because I'm using distcc and it needs a i586-pc-linux-gnu-g++
(for instance) on the compiler farm machines. Just symlinking
i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++ -> i585-.... doesn't work. But the fact is that crossdev
didn't create a c++ compiler in stage 3 :)

so create symlinks for i586-pc-linux-gnu to 1686-pc-linux-gnu

Comment 5 Rodolfo Schulz de Lima 2005-06-24 09:02:48 UTC

I said that symlinking i586-.... to i686-.... doesn't work! But the real problem
is that crossdev isn't creating the c++ in the stage 3. That is the bug.
