I believe this should be done on normal debian host, using dpkg-cross's 'dpkg-buildpackage -a'. As of it's current state, it won't work. But it could be made to :). To make it work, at least following is needed: - dpkg-architecture should know about the arch (as far as I understood, you have a version that does?) - there are some arch tables in dpkg-cross tools (probably some of them should be killed, in flavour of a howto about adding new archs to dpkg-architecture); i386-uclibc should be added there; - i386-linux-uclibc-{gcc,ld,as,...} should be availbale - dpkg-cross'ed build depends should be installed - maybe start with something that does not have other build-deps than libc, which should be satisfied by uclibc - can debian uclibc packages be just dpkg-cross'ed? or a hand-made libuclibc{0,dev}-i386-uclibc-cross is needed?
