*** Bug 565313 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Can you comment on how this relates to the existing armv5tel-unknown-linux-gnueabi-binutils review ticket (bug 509798)? I've no idea if you're trying to package the same thing or not. This toolchain is for "bare-metal" cross-development, not for a Linux target. That's why it is "arm-none-eabi" rather than "arm<something>-unknown-linux-gnueabi". The -linux-gnueabi tools are well-suited for cross-development for a Linux target, and not so well-suited for bare metal. That's why CodeSourcery has completely independent builds of the toolchain they distribute. I would like to see a working "bare-metal" cross-development toolchain for arm7tdmi based microcontrollers in Fedora (my use case will be an ADUC7026). Are you still interested in this package? If so, I'd like to do a review, and also help with other packages for the toolchain. Unfortunately it's been nearly a year since that "are you still interested" query with no response, so I'll just go ahead and close this out. I'm interested in packaging this. Taking over. Spec URL: http://mihlit.cz/smetiste/arm-none-eabi-binutils-cs.spec SRPM URL: http://mihlit.cz/smetiste/arm-none-eabi-binutils-cs-2012.09.63-1.fc17.src.rpm Description: This is a cross-compilation version of GNU Binutils, which can be used to assemble and link binaries for the %{target} platform. This Binutils package is based on the CodeSourcery %{cs_date}-%{cs_rel} release, which includes improved ARM target support compared to the corresponding FSF release. CodeSourcery contributes their changes to the FSF, but it takes a while for them to get merged. For the ARM target, effectively CodeSourcery is upstream of FSF. Fedora Account System Username: mhlavink -------------------------------------- It was noted in comment #0 and #3 - this is targeted for bare-metal arm development (st's STM32xxxx, atmel's SAMxxxx and similar microcontrollers - like avr). -------------------------------------- rpmlint is not silent: 1) macros in comments - these are just plain strings used is commented-out URLs, so no ugly macros with side-effects 2) Source0 is not in an URL form, because original tarball has 147 MB and contains just several tarballs - we need just one of them. So, to save space, Source0 is just that tarball and there is comment how and where to obtain it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 886900 *** |
