Fortunately I only want to cross-compile the kernel (many times). I used dpkg-cross but very little since make-kpkg has its own infrastructure for cross-compilation and supports the powerpc64 :) I didn't use toolchain-source because it had gcc 3.3 and I wanted to use 3.4. If I understand correctly, it contains the source code to gcc and binutils so that a number of source packages do not have to include it right? I was planing to use a single source package to build all the cross-compilers. This way the source code would be all in one place. I admit that the package will take a LONG time to compile. > > -- > "If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then > you and I will still each have one apple.
