There is a difference between creating a toolchain and supporting all packages for that arch and |
19 |
every possible ABI you can crosscompile. |

Currently i only support amd64 since thats the only ARCH i know and have access to. If i get enough |
22 |
details to implement other ARCHes and some way to test it there, i might try it for those other |
23 |
ARCHes too. |
