Hello Diwaker! Hello All! On Wednesday 19 August 2009 19:56:25 Diwaker Gupta wrote: > I'm using crosstool-ng 1.4.2.

I searched the archives, but > haven't seen this answered yet. This is not currently possible: if you were to install another toolchain on top of an existing one for the same tuple, then you would end up overwriting: - the tools: gcc, gdb, ar, as... and their runtime libraries in libexec/ - the sysroot/ directory - many other things, I guess... Definitely, this is not a good idea. So far... We could maybe devise a plan to make it possible, but so far I haven't got the smallest idea on how to do this. At least, append the version number to each tool, have the sysroot a kind of hash of the version combinations. But that's probably not enough. If you can come up with a patch, I'd be glad to review it. ;-) Regards, Yann E. MORIN. PS. I'm off to a one-week holiday (that I've been waiting for for the past year), with scarse internet access, and no machine to work on. I'm packing right now, and won't be reachable before I return, that is 20090828, which happens to be my girlfriend's birthday, so I won't be really reachable before the 20090830... Party time, now! :-) YEM. -- .-----------------.--------------------.------------------.--------------------. | Yann E.
