cross-install needs C locale to work properly.

2000-08-07 Thread Santiago Vila
Greetings. cross-install does not work properly if the locale is different than C, because it considers every non-english dpkg message as "unusual", and it fails. Either LANG=C (or LC_ALL=C) is added to cross-install, or else it should not consider unusual messages as a fatal error. Note: This i

Question: Would be possible to have the "base system" tarballs, the grub boot floopy and the current installation manual in the Debian archives in a directory named disks-hurd-i386? Thanks.

Hi. The Debian apache source seems not to be Hurd-friendly yet, so it may need some tweaking. [ In fact, dpkg itself is not Hurd-friendly ]. Take a look at the debian/rules, it says: arch=$(shell dpkg --print-architecture) This is i386 for intel, but should be really "hurd-i386". A common prob

Hi. Please, for cross-compiling, try dpkg-cross_1.3, which now supports GNU/Hurd (thanks to Roman Hodek). You will still need gcc-i386-gnu as the cross compiler, but the wrappers in dpkg-cross should work better than the ones I posted here many many months ago, because dpkg-cross contains also a
