Re: [gentooppc-dev] detecting PPC builds

[Pieter Van den Abeele]

This works best:

SYSTEM_ARCH=`echo $ARCH |\
  sed -e s/[i]*.86/i386/ -e s/sun4u/sparc64/ -e s/arm.*/arm/ -e s/sa110/arm/`
if [ -z "$SYSTEM_ARCH" ]
then
SYSTEML_ARCH=`uname -m |\
     sed -e s/[i]*.86/i386/ -e s/sun4u/sparc64/ -e s/arm.*/arm/ -e 
s/sa110/arm/`
fi 

$ARCH is very important to be able to cross-compile, but it isn't implemented 
in portage yet (but works most of the time) `uname -m` or `arch` should only 
be used when no $ARCH is available

Regards,

Pieter
