Hi all, I realize that I'm working on an ubuntu system (fiesty), but thought that since it's a debian based system getting the toolchain installed on it would be rather straightforward. Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that. Using the instructions from http://www.emdebian.org/tools/crosstools.html I added
deb http://www.emdebian.org/debian/ unstable main to my /etc/apt/sources.list. When I try to install the mipsel version of the toolchain I get the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/crosstools/trunk# sudo apt-get install g++-4.1-mipsel-linux-gnu Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: g++-4.1-mipsel-linux-gnu: Depends: gcc-4.1-base (= 4.1.2-21) but 4.1.2-0ubuntu4 is to be installed Depends: gcc-4.1-mipsel-linux-gnu (= 4.1.2-21) but it is not going to be installed Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1) but 2.5-0ubuntu14 is to be installed Depends: libstdc++6-4.1-dev-mipsel-cross (= 4.1.2-21) but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages Ok, so I'm a complete noob to the cross compiler, but the installation should be straight forward enough. How do I get the proper versions of the tools installed? TIA Tom Green tgreen at digecor dot com
