Packaging OSELAS.Toolchain: How to set DESTDIR properly

Packaging OSELAS.Toolchain: How to set DESTDIR properly

[Dennis.Herbrich]

Greetings!

I would like to build the current OSELAS.Toolchain-2011.11.1 with 
ptxdist-2011.11.0 as recommended, and package it for further distribution 
as an Arch Linux package. Building and installing normally as documented 
is not a problem, but I fail to fully grasp what settings are necessary to 
install the files to an arbitrarily prefixed location, ie. 
/tmp/makepkg/pkg/opt instead of /opt, without messing up GCC's sysroot, 
search-dirs and friends.

Exporting PTX_AUTOBUILD_DESTDIR=/tmp/makepkg/pkg before running ptxdist go 
seemed to install the toolchain where I wanted, but unfortunately also 
added my prefix to the compiled in defaults of GCC. Is there a 
configuration option to do what I want? Something similar to "make 
DESTDIR=/prefix" that is correctly used throughout the whole toolchain 
build and install process automagically?

If not, I'd be thankful for pointers to what would need to be patched to 
make this happen. I really want a cleanly buildable package of this 
toolchain. ;)

Thank you for your consideration,
Dennis Herbrich

I guess you'd be better answered on the appropriate mailing list for either
PTXdist and/or OSELAS.Toolchain.

This list is about generic questions about building gcc-based cross-
toolchains and, incidentally, about crosstool-NG.

Yann E. MORIN.

Thank you for your suggestion, I'll go bother the ptxdist-mailinglist 
instead.

To be perfectly honest, I wasn't sure this was the right mailing list 
myself,
but http://www.pengutronix.de/oselas/toolchain/index_en.html
explicitly referred me to here:

| This project has no own mailing list. Please use the crossgcc mailing 
list for
| all OSELAS.Toolchain() related questions, which has historically been a 
major
| resource for community discussion about cross toolchain building. 

If this wording is inaccurate and causing a bothersome influx of off-topic 
mails
to this list, someone may want to ask Pengutronics to reword this 
paragraph.

However, I'll carry this ptxdist issue of mine elsewhere, and come back if
there's an actual cross-related issue of interest. Thank you for your 
time!

Best regards,
  Dennis
