Date, version ? What does IIRC mean ? Ad tool-chain: I use the tool-chain of the puffingroup, selfmade from the latest version of 21.12.2000 or so. I build it from source and it was no problem except the fact, that the it must be `--host' not `--HOST' (I have some experiences in it). But it was not possible to build bash from the scratch in this way. host=hppa-linux, build=i386-linux should be the correct one, but .... The biuld process of bash (and I think for other too, does not call the cross compiler). The use of CC= AS= LD= etc has the other problem, that binary tools which are build in the build process are running on PA RISC, but they are used in i386 for further building. So my question: How can I tell an autoconfigured build process (standard linux source tree) to use the cross compiler on the right points. As I used RedHat up to now, I have no experience in debian packaging system. What are this files like dpkg-cross tool, etc... How to use them, how to install them. You say, the bash is a problem. Is this for other tools much easier, like `init' or daemons, etc... Thanks for the help and a happy new year soon....
