Yes, so did I, but the build process continues and ignores the errors and procudec a compiler without sripping the libs. But this should also be fixed so that we get them stripped. > (I did the shlibdeps change after using dpkg-cross and after building > binutils but before building gcc). > > Dave > > P.S.

The cool solution here I suppose would be to patch apt-get so that "apt-get --cross-arch m68k libc6-dev" installed crossversions of the lib and all it's dependecies. -- Hakan Ardo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://master.debian.org/~hakan/
