Hello Matthias,
I would like to add a sub-chapter to our documentation describing what is
needed to build U-Boot on Suse. Cf.
https://u-boot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/build/gcc.html
Unfortunately I could not find all the packages that need to be installed
in the Suse Tumbleweed Docker image.
For 'make qemu_arm64_defconfig && make' I get an error
aarch64-suse-linux-ld.bfd: cannot find -lgcc
If I remember correctly, that's a known problem in our cross toolchain (ouch!).
I forwarded the info to our toolchain team, but didn't got any response up to now.
For 'make tests' a lot more seems to be missing.
Do you have a list of required packages?
No I don't. I suppose I installed all packages once on my laptop, but I didn't
kept track which one these are.
Regards,
Matthias
Best regards
Heinrich
