My interpretation of what "build" referred to for etcupate was way off. I've added the -B's that I was not using before.

I still wonder if etcupdate builds more than it needs to for its specific pruposes when it does do a build: building dtc in order to complete an etcupdate just seems time/resource wasting. But, at least I'm using -B in the future. > Kind regards, > Mina Galić > > > > > -------- Original Message -------- > On 13 Aug 2023, 08:32, Mark Millard < mark...@yahoo.com> wrote: > I'd noticed that the etcupdate part of my build procedure has been taking > much time.

I'll note that aarch64 targeting aarch64 (self hosted > build) also spends notable time and is likely doing similarly. === Mark > Millard marklmi at yahoo.com > === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
