https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1350884 --- Comment #48 from Andy Mender <andymenderunix@xxxxxxxxx> --- Apologies for the delay with this! I went through the various Packaging Guidelines and it doesn't seem like there is anything against splitting the package into multiple SPEC files. The only potential problem it introduces is that certain subpackages might become uninstallable if the dependency is not available yet. On the plus side, maybe when you split the SPEC, you'll notice a pattern that will let you re-assemble everything into a single SPEC file again or you'll realize it wouldn't work in a single SPEC. > In the interim, it was suggested on the devel mailing list[0] that this could instead be built with the cross-gcc[1] and cross-binutils[2] packages. Doing this and having a useful (for embedded development) compiler at the end requires a matching newlib package, as is done for arm[3]. I've mocked all of this up, and while building it is super confusing, it does work. Would that be a better path forward? Do I run it up the flagpole on the devel mailing list? Somewhere else? I shortly revisited this bit. To my understanding, cross-gcc and cross-binutils are meant for building OS kernels, not cross-compiling regular userland software. However, following this example might be useful, as suggested on the mailing list: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/arm-none-eabi-newlib/blob/master/f/arm-none-eabi-newlib.spec However, that still requires the various -binutils, -gcc, etc. packages for MSP430. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
