openSUSE@ARM/GSoC: weekly status
The topic of this week was to speed up the build. As I mentioned last week, the
prototype in Base:build:arm is compiling in an emulated environment and thus is
quite slow.
I prepared a cross-toolchain from the sources of binutils, gcc44 and glibc from
openSUSE:Factory. Now its time to integrate this into the build process.
This will improve the performace of the compilation itself. But other areas
in the build process can also be improved, just think of the bash.
Some patches for the Build Service were also commited to svn.
In progress / todo:
* prepare / submit fixes for rpm
* more work on cross-toolchain
