Subject: crosscompiling GNU, how?
Date: Tue, 08 Apr 1997 02:50:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199704080950.CAA29929@cygnus.com> (raw)

I have the following problem and question:
I need to build a crosscompiler host: NeXT or Linux and target: Win95.
I have downloaded the complete cdksrc.tar.gz package. After unpacking
I am faced with zillions of files and some 200-300MB of source code.
I understand that I do not need at least some of this code.
Could I simply remove unnecessary files and packages (like hp 68k z88 etc)?
If so what files need to remain?
I already have a working GNU package supplied with my NeXT installation.
I do not want to corrupt it. Should I (how and where to) change the default
directories (/usr , /etc)? If I recompile the lot as a user and not root
NeXT (Linux) will not allow make to access system directories (am I right?)
Is it possible that I use the existing GNU compiler to produce the assembler
output and then run it through crossassembler and crosslinker? This would
greatly speed up the whole procedure.
