You need the bootstrap package, make, binutils and gcc. Have a look at the tutorial [2] or give it a dry run viewing the showcase [3] (animated GIF). You can even build and install OpenPKG as unprivileged user. If the build fails at least you'll get GNU shtool 2.0 with the download. It'll help you even if you decide not to go the OpenPKG route. It is available from OSSP [4]. Find out which arch-os (used to name OpenPKG binary RPMs) $ shtool platform -t binary Find CPU/system architecture/product/technology in human readable format $ shtool platform -t all-in-one [1] http://www.openpkg.org/ [2] http://www.openpkg.org/tutorial.html [3] http://www.openpkg.org/showcase.html [4] http://www.ossp.org/pkg/tool/shtool/ -- Thomas.Lotterer@xxxxxx, Cable & Wireless
