I am trying to build a cross compiler on my Redhat 4.1 Linux box. (I managed to do this with the old Beta16 kit.) Anyway, the compilation fails at some stage with: --- make[1]: Entering directory `/home/prins/Cygnus/i586-cygwin32/winsup' rootme=`pwd` ; export rootme ; \ rootsrc=`(cd . ; pwd)` ; export rootsrc ; \ cd utils; make all CC="/home/prins/Cygnus/gcc/xgcc -B/home/prins/Cygnus/gcc/ -B/home/prins/Cygnus/newlib/ -L/home/prins/Cygnus/winsup -idirafter /home/prins/Cygnus/i586-cygwin32/newlib/targ-include -idirafter /home/prins/Cygnus/newlib/libc/include -nostdinc" CFLAGS="-g" CXXFLAGS="-g -O2" EXE_LDFLAGS="-B$rootme/../newlib/ -L.." AR="/home/prins/Cygnus/binutils/ar" RANLIB="/home/prins/Cygnus/binutils/ranlib" LD="/home/prins/Cygnus/ld/ld.new" DLLTOOL="/home/prins/Cygnus/binutils/dlltool" make[2]: Entering directory `/home/prins/Cygnus/i586-cygwin32/winsup/utils' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `all'. Stop. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/prins/Cygnus/i586-cygwin32/winsup/utils' make[1]: *** [utils-all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/prins/Cygnus/i586-cygwin32/winsup' make: *** [all-target-winsup] Error 2 --- Now I've gotten this to compile by hand, but then it barfs later on because it wants libc.a or something (newlib) for cygwin.dll. It seems as if the winsup dir, and the newlib dir aren't being configured during the initial configuration process. All I want to know is: Has anyone else managed to build a cross compiler on a similar setup? What did you do? I used the following commands (initially): --- ../configure --build=i586-linux --host=i586-linux --target=i586-cygwin32 # This configures as i586-pc-linux and i586-pc-cygwin32 make Any ideas? -- Walter Prins email: prins@quark.cs.sun.ac.za | Sola Scriptura Department of Computer Science prins@cs.sun.ac.za | Sola Gratia University of Stellenbosch www: http://quark.cs.sun.ac.za| Sola Fide South Africa | Soli Deo Gloria - For help on using this list, send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
