You may be interested in buildroot http://buildroot.net/ and |
| 17 |
http://buildroot.net/about.html It's nominally aimed at cross-compiling |
| 18 |
for embedded systems, but it looks like it handles just about |
| 19 |
everything. I'm not a developer, so I don't know if this is what you're |
| 20 |
looking for, but it sounds interesting. |
