failing to arm...-emerge python-2.6.3

Hello,

I'm new to this list and also relatively new (several weeks) to
cross-compiling.
I'm trying to create a Gentoo Base system for a Netus G20 (mounted on a
Fox Board G20, http://netus.acmesystems.it/doku.php ).

It's mostly done, but some last ebuilds fail. So I hope, someone here on
this list might help me.
The output of armv5tejl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi-emerge -pv system:
http://php-pro.de/tmp/emerge-system.txt
armv5tejl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi-emerge --info:
http://php-pro.de/tmp/info.txt
And the build log of the "bad guy":
http://php-pro.de/tmp/python-2.6.3-arm-build.log
On the host system, also python 2.6.3 is installed.

one second question is: will I need libtool to be able to continue
emerging on the arm system? it depends on libperl, and libperl also
won't cross-compile and so I would like to do that later on the
arm-system ...

Thanks in advance,
Michael

2.6.3 doesn't compile for me, 2.6.2-r2 does. i don't know if you have
an overlay for this, but the 2.6.2-r2 out of the openmoko overlay builds
and runs fine. i think you've already noted that you need to have the
same python version built on target as on host.

i've no idea about libperl, don't want to go there :>

Re: failing to arm...-emerge python-2.6.3 [In reply to]

thanks for your info.
I installed the openmoko layer, but I don't think it's used.
Is there a way to force the usage of a layer?
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/overlays/userguide.xml says ~arch might do
that, but I already use the ~arm-Keyword ...
http://php-pro.de/tmp/python-2.6.2-r2-build.log and
http://php-pro.de/tmp/python-2.6.2-r2-openmoko-build.log don't really
differ.

Thanks,
Michael

You don't say if you are using layman or added the overlay manually.
Make sure that the overlay is pulled in from make.conf. See layman
docs and make.conf docs.

thanks a lot!
i used layman and thought PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" was
enough, but in addition with the exact openmoko-drirectory it now worked
(/usr/local/portage/layman/openmoko/trunk/openmoko-target).

Thank you all! :-)

Please do read the documentation.

--8<-- man layman
CONFIGURATION
..
make.conf
..
prefer having a very small external file that only contains the
setting for PORTAGE_OVERLAYS. This file is then sourced at the end
of /etc/make.conf. This is the reason why layman suggests running
"echo "source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf" >>
/etc/make.conf" after it has been installed.

Sorry, reading and understanding are two different things ;-)
I read it, had a look into /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf and saw
no reason ... my failure :o

Well, nevertheless you helped me a lot, my work - programming the
embedded device - now can begin! thanks to you ...

True! Read again and again until it becomes clear. Read slowly.
I have to do that too, and it pays off.

The important bit was that about echo and PORTDIR_OVERLAY.

Hi!

I finally find time for python-2.6.4, and updated patches, so

openmoko overlay now have crosscompile-aware python
