As I write on <http://www.bddebian.com/~wiki/hurd/building/cross-compiling/>: ``The sources are rooted in `binutils-2_18-branch/src/'.'' I don't describe to move them someplace else, so that one is easily able to update the checkout of the `binutils-2_18-branch'. Later I write: ``Create a directory where the cross build shall be rooted in and a `src' subdirectory in there. Then create symbolic links for every of the above packages: from `src/PACKAGE' to where you stored or unpacked it.'' I'll think about a way to make this better understandable. > 2.
