FSF has issued updates to binutils, gcc, and gdb. Cygnus has issued an update to newlib. The existing crossm68k port uses the 'crosstree' script to generate an integrated cross-development toolchain. Since Cygnus has not released crosstree updated for the new FSF releases, the set of ports I am submitting will allow a user to generate a gcc-2.8.x based toolchain for themselves. Since the existing crossm68k port is in use by several people I know of, this port will be designated a "development version" until some time in the future and the existing port should remain available until then. The top-level port (devel/crossm68k-devel) builds the following ports: m68kgdb: gdb-4.17 (updated email address) m68kbinutils: binutils-2.9.1 (new) m68kgcc: gcc-2.8.1 (new) m68knewlib: newlib-1.8.1 (new) I modeled this scheme after the kde port. It was necessary because of problems I encountered trying to from build a unified tree. The uuencoded tarball contains these port directories relative to ${PORTSDIR}/devel Jerry Hicks jhicks@glenatl.glenayre.com July 8, 1998
If you already have m68kgdb installed or crossm68k installed, they should be removed before attempting to build crossm68k-devel. Otherwise, you will encounter problems building. Jerry Hicks.
State Changed From-To: open->closed I think I got it. Thanks!
