In the ebuild in dev-embedded/msp430-gcc is the following line: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
is_crosscompile || die "Only cross-compile builds are supported" |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I'm not sure exactly what it means, but it seems to mean that this |
| 35 |
ebuild can only be used when cross-compiling, i.e. when building gcc to |
| 36 |
_run_ on the msp430. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I want to build a cross-compiler, i.e. a gcc that will run on my x86_64 |
| 39 |
and create code to run on the msp430. |
