- gcc-bootstrap always failes to compile the first time because HEADERS_DIR (inside the crossdev.sh script) inits empty when headers are not yet unpacked. - From second time on, glibc always fails to compile for alpha, also when using 2.3.2-r9 which runs stable on alpha. - When using glibc-2.3.3_pre20031222, GLIBC_DIR does not init right. - Typo in crossdev.sh, missing space before ] in: if [ "${CMDKERNEL}" != "yes"]; then - crossdev-status.sh minor bugs: /usr/bin/crossdev-status.sh: line 291: [18]=0: command not found /usr/bin/crossdev-status.sh: line 297: [18]=0: command not found I fixed all this and can now build a full toolchain on athlon-xp for alpha. Also when fixing this I added some features, so one can do for instance: crossdev.sh --arch=alpha --headers=2.4.19-r1 --gcc=3.3.2-r2 --glibc=2.3.2-r9 --pflags The --pflags option is for using the CFLAGS from portage. Use this if you think they are better than crossdev.sh normally provides ;-) The patched crossdev.sh and crossdev-status.sh can be downloaded from http://cyberx.ath.cx/crossdev-0.3-patched.tar.bz2 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge /usr/portage/sys-devel/crossdev/crossdev-0.3.ebuild 2.rm -rf /var/tmp/portage/* /home/crossdev/* 3.crossdev.sh --arch=alpha 4.crossdev.sh --arch=alpha Actual Results: First time: make[2]: *** [libgcc/./unwind-dw2.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/crossdevbuild/gcc-3.2.3/buildboothe re-alpha/gcc' make[1]: *** [libgcc.a] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/crossdevbuild/gcc-3.2.3/buildboothe re-alpha/gcc' make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2 * gcc-bootstrap failed to compile!

Wow, this is neat, have to poke at it later on. I mainly worked on crossdev on my x86 box, which just went "boom" yesterday, so I won't be able to scrutinize this for a bit until I get that box back up and finish up some things in mips-land. The added flags to specify specific versions is the more interesting to look at. Have to see how you implemented that little bit of logic.
been fixed; in crossdev-0.4.
