despite a couple of pointers i got here earlier, i'm stilll unable to convince "rpmbuild" to cross-compile a source rpm i have. based on an earlier email, i added the following to my personal .rpmmacros file: %__ar %{_cross_compile}ar %__as %{_cross_compile}as %__cc %{_cross_compile}gcc %__cpp %{_cross_compile}gcc -E %__cxx %{_cross_compile}g++ %__ld %{_cross_compile}ld %__nm %{_cross_compile}nm %__objcopy %{_cross_compile}objcopy %__objdump %{_cross_compile}objdump %__ranlib %{_cross_compile}ranlib %__remsh %{__rsh} %__strip %{_cross_compile}strip %__size %{_cross_compile}size ("rpmbuild --showrc" verifies that these are bring set.) and my rpmbuild command looks like: $ rpmbuild --define="_cross_compile ppc_8xx-" -bb <spec file> i also added "--target=powerpc-linux" to the command, with no effect. any hints? all i get is the standard i386-based binary rpm being built, with only the default "gcc" being called throughout the build process. rday _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
