Sigh - Will you ever stop reiterating this FUD? All properly packaged "single-targeted" autoconf/automake based packages do support cross-compilation, OTB. Few packages do support mixed native/cross compilation and even less do support multi-target configurations. > Packages in _general_ won't cross-compile. Yes, because many packagers don't test it and because rpm doesn't support it.
