It failed with the error message Building libc6-mipsel-cross_2.3.2.ds1-18_all.deb Unpacking libc6-mipsel-cross dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libc6-mipsel-cross: libc6-mipsel-cross depends on libdb1-compat-mipsel-cross; however: Package libdb1-compat-mipsel-cross is not installed. dpkg: error processing libc6-mipsel-cross (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: libc6-mipsel-cross dpkg -i failed. ...and I can't find this package libdb1-compat-mipsel-cross. I also tried dpgk-make mipsel - got the two directories, debuild and debi worked well with binutils-gcc-mipsel-2.15 - debuild failes however in gcc-mipsel-3.0.4 withdh_testdir dh_testroot dh_installdocs dh_installman dh_installinfo dh_undocumented dh_installchangelogs dh_link dh_strip strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file _m16subsf3.o dh_strip: command returned error code make: *** [binary-arch] Error 1 debuild: fatal error at line 456: dpkg-buildpackage failed! All I need is to compile hello world to get it run on a mips ;) Any ideas ? thx Thomas
