Re: [CT-NG] Status : canadian rework

["Andreas Erler" <a dot elch at gmx dot at>]

Hello Yann,

i wanted to test building a canadian cross:
BUILD: linux
HOST: i686-pc-mingw32
TARGET: arm-unknow-uclibcgnueabi
but unfortunately I failed.

I then tried to build the mingw canadian sample you mentioned in your email, 
but it also fails at the very beginning with this lines:

[INFO ]  Performing some trivial sanity checks
[INFO ]  Build started 20110310.133646
[INFO ]  Building environment variables
[EXTRA]  Preparing working directories
[ERROR]  Missing: 'i586-mingw32msvc-ar' or 'i586-mingw32msvc-ar' or 'ar' : 
either needed!

I'm a little bit confused (long time ago that a built my last canadian cross 
compiler), am I'm doing wrong here to leave the config from the sample 
unchanged and tried directly to build the canadian cross in one shot?
Do I have to build first a cross compiler for i586-mingw32msvc that runs on 
linux and then build a cross compiler for let's say 
arm-unknown-uclibcgnueabi that runs on linux, and then do the canadian cross 
compilation?

Can you please explain the right way to do that?

Thanks,
Andy
