Hello all!
I'm pleased to announce the release of crosstool-NG 1.13.0!
As usual, there has been quite a number of improvements, new features,
and bug fixes all around. The most notable changes are listed below:
- features:
- gdb: enable/disable use of python scripting
- glibc/eglibc: optionally build locales
- uClibc: NPTL now available for 0.9.32+
- newlib: enable/disable built-in syscalls
- arch:
- mips: add support for SDE ABI
- powerpc: add support for EABI
- updated components:
- linux: 3.0.x, and long term
- gcc: Linaro versions
- gdb: Linaro versions
- uClibc: 0.9.32 is no longer EXPERIMENTAL
- binutils: 2.21.53 (rather stable snapshot)
- companion libraries: gmp
- infrastructure:
- more autostuff compatibility in ./configure
- some required dependencies made optional: svn, cvs, lzma...
- add support for xz-compressed tarballs, depreacte lzma
- static tests are done with the toolchain's host tools
- automatically build in parallel if jobs==0
- a bit more stuff has been parallelised where possible
- documentation:
- update all references to point to the official website
- usage with Xcode 4.1
This marks the beginning of the 1.13 maintenance branch, and the end of
the previous maintenance branch. As always, comments and suggestions
are most welcome!
I'll add a few personal words to this release announcement:
This release is dedicated to my good friend, CÃdric, who passed
away in late September 2011, after a long and stressful struggle
against the disease.
Do not forget your towel, CÃdric.
So long, and thanks for all the fish!
