i386 ARM target package?

(1/1)

whiskers75:
Could someone be as kind as to create a 32-bit APT (Debian) package for the ARM toolchain? Cross compiling is impossible with a 64-bit computer, and I need to make a package for Travis CI.
Thanks,

Building a 32-bit toolchain on a 64-bit computer is not impossible at all. The easiest way is to use a 32-bit chroot created with debootstrap, if you're on Debian, but it's also possible to build a Canadian cross toolchain (where the host, build and target platforms are all different).

whiskers75:
I get this error:


--- Code: ---checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in `/tmp/rbdev-build/build-gcc/arm-elf-eabi/libgcc':
configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
See `config.log' for more details.

--- End code ---

torne:
Do you have a 32-bit C library installed for the built compiler to use?

whiskers75:
No, can I ask how to do that on 64-bit Ubuntu 12.10?  :)
Thanks,
