While trying to build a toolchain with ct-ng 1.5.0,
arm-unknown-linux-uclibcgnueabi target,
I get the following error:
[INFO ] Installing C library headers
[EXTRA] Copying sources to build dir
[EXTRA] Applying configuration
[EXTRA] Building headers
[EXTRA] Installing headers
[ERROR] extra/scripts/unifdef.c:209: error: conflicting types for 'getline'
[ERROR] make[2]: *** [extra/scripts/unifdef] Error 1
[ERROR] Build failed in step 'Installing C library headers'
The following patch solves the problem.
(It's a backport of this uClibc commit:
http://git.uclibc.org/uClibc/commit/?id=49e81cada73616864b9b31df0aeb6961c30f5a6e

AFAIK this is a problem since glibc 2.10.
Add config option to build wtarget code with THUMB interworking.
This is used to build the C library as well as all other code
that runs on the target.
The newlib "team" rolls new releases about once a year (december).
This is quite a long time between releases, in case code was fixed.
So, allow user to use a CVS snapshot to benefit early from fixes
and enhancements to newlib.
Some projects' module (eg. newlib) are checked-out into a sudirectory
rather than into their own directory. Handle this case in the CT_GetCVS
function.
newlib handles the build/host/target a bit differently as one would expect:
build : not used
host : the nachine that builds newlib
target : the machine on which newlib will run
Bizarely enough, binutils-2.18 fails to build when CONFIG_SHELL is set
to /bin/bash (although it has code to recognise bash and act accordingly).
Waht is really strange is that it does build when CONFIG_SHELL is set
to /bin/sh, *although* /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/bash. WTF?!?!
Split the has_or_abort function in two:
- one that checks if the tool if found,
- one that calls the above check, and aborts if not found
The rational behind this is to be able to check for a tool
and if not found, fallback to using our bundled version,
should the need arise (and I get time).
ncurses is built solely for the sake of building a native gdb.
The user should not rely on this library to build his/her userland,
but should rather build his/her own. So we remove it from the
sysroot after we successfully build the native gdb.
The option to retrieve snapshots is already handled by
the generic 'specific date' and 'use latest' entries.
No need for a special case, as there's no code for it.
