I don't know what its formal goals are, but I think it should be part of ARM (and MIPS) Fedora at least as far as being able to cook kernels with it. Bootloaders and kernels are kind of uniquely in need of cross because by definition if you're working on them you often won't have a reliable native environment. However the cost of trying to build other things cross in a sane way soon gets out of control so it seems wise to leave everything else native-built. Packaged kernels and bootloaders can also be done native. -Andy _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
