The emdebian cross-toolchains are more-or-less abandonned now. We are working on getting cross-toolchains into the debian archive instead. Unfortunately there has been a gap into which you have fallen. There is new cross-toolchain packaging (for multiarch builds) here: https://alioth.debian.org/anonscm/git/crosstoolchain/ I'm just fixing that so that gcc-4.8 (again) and 4.9 build. That won't work without some fixing in stable, I suspect. > Since my last mail, I tested all toolchains available in "unstable" > from emdebian.

You can use the 'buildcross' package in experimental to build new emdebian-style corss-toolchains in stable. Last time I tried this is worked very nicely. So, yes sorry it's all broken. We know. It was working nicely a month or so ago Manpower is indeed limited, so you are very welcome to join the cross-toolchain team on alioth and help get things better. https://alioth.debian.org/projects/crosstoolchain/ Wookey -- Principal hats: Linaro, Emdebian, Wookware, Balloonboard, ARM http://wookware.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
