Hi Yann,
I recently upgraded to the latest openSUSE 12.1 release and discovered
that crosstool-NG has trouble building native gdb.
In scripts/build/debug/300-gdb.sh around line 249 is found:
native_extra_config+=("--with-curses")
# There's no better way to tell gdb where to find -lcurses... :-(
gdb_native_CFLAGS+=("-I${CT_BUILD_DIR}/static-target/include")
gdb_native_CFLAGS+=("-L${CT_BUILD_DIR}/static-target/lib")
In previous builds (i.e. openSUSE 11.4, etc) the lib directory (as
specified) exists. With my builds on openSUSE 12.1 this directory
doesn't exist, but ${CT_BUILD_DIR}/static-target/lib64 does. The
native gdb fails during the run of one of the many sub-directory
./configure scripts saying "no termcap library found". Manually
tweaking the above to say "lib64" allows the native gdb build to
succeed (but, obviously, is not a general solution).
The build then fails a little later (during cleanup, stripping all
binaries) but I haven't looking into that yet to provide much
information.
Best regards,
Trevor
