Host: Linux PC
Target: PowerPC and ARM
Summary: changing the default string for GNU target suffix does
not work
Product: buildroot
Version: unspecified
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P5
Component: Other
AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
ReportedBy: vania.joloboff at tsinghua.edu.cn
CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
Estimated Hours: 0.0

I am using latest buildroot version 2009-02-rc3.
I am trying to generate the toolchain for ARM, PPC and MIPS
In the configuration menu, in the Build Options submenu there is an option for GNU target suffix. The default value is "linux-uclibc"

If this string is changed to another value for example "elf-uclibc" the build process fails with an error, for both ARM (generic) and PowerPC (generic) at least.

I have only set this variable and the install directory to be /usr/local/cross/{target-arch}/ and I am using make O=path/to/build

[Buildroot] [Bug 89] changing the default string for GNU target suffix does not work

--- Comment #1 from Will Newton <[email protected]> 2009-07-27 09:10:35 UTC ---

I'm not sure if this is a bug. The valid options here are defined by the gcc configure system and elf-uclibc is not a valid way to configure gcc. uClibc does not support non-Linux systems in any case.

The help for this option has a reference to hurd which could be removed however.
