Got this setup and fixed the wiki documentation along the way. All my xdeb builds crash and burn with the following error: arm-linux-gnueabi-objdump: /lib/libm.so.6: File format not recognized dpkg-shlibdeps: error: arm-linux-gnueabi-objdump gave error exit status 1 I've tried grep, powertop and binutils. I'm running this in a maverick chroot on Lucid (64-bit). Any clues what might be going wrong? /Amit _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
