So just to make sure by example: /usr/lib/sparc-linux/bin/ ... nm ranlib ar as ld ... /usr/lib/sparc-linux/include/ ... /usr/lib/sparc-linux/lib/ ... libpthread.a libresolv.a librpcsvc.a librt.a libutil.a ... These are the files converted from the Sparc-native packages, as far as I can tell. There are also symlinks for a few things: bin/cpp -> ../../bin/sparc-linux-cpp for example. On my system as configured right now, that's /usr/bin/sparc-linux-cpp which is just fine. I don't see why switching to /usr/lib/<target>/ shouldn't work. I'll give it a whirl with locally-modified packages and see if I run into any troubles. -- Ferret
