 for those who need it and are old-school 32bit users like me, I manage
to get a new hard drive and thus built a 32bit toolchain for shr. I
will try to update it either on-demand or whenever I see I can no
longer update it with opkg-target :). I uploaded the shr-testing
version already on Christoph's server (thanks for hosting!). The
shr-unstable will follow within this week. The url is

How did you build the toolchain? Did you use some recipe that's in OE, or
created a new one?

I think it would be cool to have SHR toolchain that would include all the
SHR libs by defaul, maybe even vala (what a dream :) ), but it seemed like
nobody is really interested.

And yes, afaik this toolchains are created using OE :)

Exactly, mine is created with OE as well. I just thought someone may
need the x86 version. As far as i know vala is not included in the SHR
toolchain. Why do you need vala in the toolchain?

Ah, I guess my question was not clear. Obviously the toolchain was built via OE. What I wanted to know is - have you used a recipe that's already in OE, or have you created a new one, specifically for SHR?

I asked that as I saw the label "SHR toolchain", so I thought it might be SHR-specific (i.e. including the SHR-relevant libs by default, without extra need to install them). But from your mail it seems it's just the ordinary Angstrom-like toolchain (meta-toolchain.bb).

As for vala. - For cross-compiling vala apps for the FreeRunner. I assume cross-compiling a vala application for the FR (without OE) is quite difficult. One needs to have enough bleeding-edge valac, occasionally even some extra patches. Also one needs the right .vapi files. (I have just a vague idea about this though.) - This is obviously already resolved in the OE, so if the toolchain included vala from OE, it would mean it is the correct version with the right patches etc.
