I've been building gcc 4.2.x for arm on my ubuntu gutsy machine for a while now, and I can compile things like octave (which needs a fortran compiler) and hope to be able to build R and grass soon (which also need a fortran compiler). After this revision was committed bitbake halted to a stop and informed me I needed to install gfortran. Hmmm. I know for sure gfortran isn't need and I suspect the real issue is in gmp-native or mpfr-native not being picked up correctly. As a test I compiled gcc natively on my efika (without gfortran, but with mpfr-dev and gmp-dev installed) and that works and now has a working fortran compiler. I even compiled octave natively and it runs quite well. To sum it up: ~ * gfortran is NOT needed to build a gfortran cross-compiler, something else is wrong. regards, Koen [1] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-commits/2008-January/011406.html - -- koen@dominion.kabel.utwente.nl will go go away in december 2007, please use k.kooi@student.utwente.nl instead. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) iD8DBQFHhfc2MkyGM64RGpERAgDYAJ0a0kN10TFp3SlCv08riQk2NXZRHACgsBOU hYdqF4j+KTr5ZkDOP1dZI/A= =KswC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
