Is that enough, or do they > need a config file? Nope, uClibc needs a config file. It uses a config system very similar to the Linux kernel config. Much config tweaking and updating can be scripted, but it takes some trial and error to get the exact scripting commands right. And then it takes some more trial and error to figure out what other options magically appear (and will cause the next "make oldconfig" to stop and ask you how you want them set) after your script makes the changes. So I'd prefer to keep the scripted changes that crosstool performs on uClibc configs to a minimum. Necessary "the build will fail if this isn't set this way" stuff only; I'd rather non-critical user preferences come in through a config file that the user has prepared beforehand. -----Carl ------ Want more information?
