For some of what we're doing with SUSE now I've determined we should really be packaging the device tree compiler (and libfdt) so that we can install and script it, along with some other stuff from U-Boot (not for this mail).
I was wondering if the recommended way would be to use the dtc found in the kernel-source or to use the git repo at git.jdl.com to grab it and build it. The one in the kernel is seemingly impossible to build without some tweaking around (I can't find a target for make that does it) so I also wonder about a hint here on what to do to create it from the kernel source so we can pull it out for a local system install. (the other tool we need is mkimage from U-Boot, I noticed Debian uses this same command name inside jigdo etc. too, sigh.. also you can't build the tools without the rest of U-Boot which is hard to envision doing just to get one command out of it - "make tools/mkimage" doesn't work and I got tired of reverse engineering the chickenscratch..) -- Matt Sealey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Genesi, Manager, Developer Relations _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
