Hi, I am new to the cross compilation environment and trying to get familiar with scratchbox2.
I tried to cross compile to a Debian squeeze ARM target from a Ubuntu 9.10 host. I set up the environment mainly following the instructions at http://www.openplug.org/plugwiki/index.php/Scratchbox2_based_cross_compiling . Simple compilations (directly using sb2 g++ foo.cpp) work just fine. But when I tried to install pre-built packages, I ran into some weird problems. For example, if I run the following: $sb2 -eR apt-get upgrade First, I got the following: perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LANGUAGE = (unset), LC_ALL = (unset), LANG = "en_US.UTF-8" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). /usr/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory /usr/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or directory /usr/bin/locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory Extracting templates from packages: 100% Second, I got /bin/rm: cannot remove `/usr/share/info/dir.old': Permission denied dpkg: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) The second problem seems very strange to me, If I do $sb2 -eR sb2-show path /usr/share/info/dir.old I see the following which I think is correct as /home/binwang/workspace/debian_squeeze_rootfs is indeed my rootfs. /usr/share/info/dir.old => /home/binwang/workspace/debian_squeeze_rootfs/usr/share/info/dir.old If I do $sb2 -eR ls -l /usr/share/info/dir.old I have /bin/ls: /usr/share/info/dir.old: Function not implemented -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 781 Dec 3 15:22 /usr/share/info/dir.old What does "Function not implemented" mean? The permission of "/usr/share/info/dir.old" seems correct as well, but why I get permission denied when trying to delete it. Your help is highly appreciated. If you need more details about my setup, I'd more than happy to provide. Thanks a lot, Bin
