Okay, so in my quest for a cross-compiler, if I build GCC with the --target
option for my preferred target, will that also take care of configuring GAS
the right way? I'm a little bit confused because I don't program C at all,
but I need to set this up for our programmers to use. The GCC info pages
(I HATE INFO, btw) say that I need to have certain files in
/usr/local/TARGET/bin which correspond to my intended platform. This from the
gcc info file:
The easiest way to provide these files is to build the Binutils
package and GAS. Configure them with the same `--host' and `--target'
options that you use for configuring GNU CC, then build and install
them. They install their executables automatically into the proper
directory. Alas, they do not support all the targets that GNU CC
supports.
To me, this seems to suggest that GAS and binutils get configured seperately
from gcc, and there isn't anything in my gcc source tree that looks like GAS.
I found binutils as a seperate srpm and I'm working on setting that up now.
Sorry for the spewage, but I'm out of my league on this one.
