This is still not good for me. I use the cross-addr2line tool all the time, and objdump and other such tools. I have many different sandboxes with different arch builds of different freebsd versions, and each one is a self-contained little development world that includes the cross tools that are known to work with that source base. I don't think there's a single addr2line binary I can install that will work with every object on the system. If the time spent building these things is bothering people, maybe we need a WITH_CROSS_BINUTILS knob or something? -- Ian _______________________________________________ svn-src-head@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-head To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-head-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
