I have tried to generate libstdc++6-4.7-armhf-cross_4.7.1-7_all.deb with it by doing: xapt -a armhf -b -m libstdc++6=4.7.1-7 The response was: E: Version '4.7.1-7' for 'libstdc++6' was not found I have checked the Packages file fetched by xapt, and it indeed does not reference that version. However the armhf package can be downloaded from the repository. http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gcc-4.7/libstdc++6_4.7.1-7_armhf.deb Maybe that's the cause the correct dependency is missing from the emdebian repository. I'm not very acquainted with the structure of the Packages file, can it reference multiple versions of a package? If not, the only fix could be getting the armhf toolchain in sync with the armel toolchain. Aren't they built at the same time? By the way, following http://wiki.debian.org/BuildingCrossCompilers I have successfully built the latest 4.6 and 4.7 toolchains, and they compiled cleanly. Regards, Patrik
