I wonder if it would make sense to add them to the toolchain as a separate step afterwards? -- Dan Wilder ________________________________________ From: crossgcc-owner@sourceware.org [crossgcc-owner@sourceware.org] on behalf of Tobias Andresen [tobiasarp@web.de] Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2016 10:35 PM To: Chris Packham; crossgcc@sourceware.org Subject: Re: Add additional libraries and header files to toolchain Hi Chris, i agree that libraries like libusb etc. should normally not part of the toolchain. But sometimes it seems to be easier to provide a complete toolchain to someone else containing those libraries (if required in special versions) than providing an rootfs or similar wich contains them.
