Hi Linaro toolchain team,

I compiled linaro-toolchain 2013.06 by myself on fedora 18 x86_64, everything works fine except GDB.

How do you build the toolchain?

If you use Linaro build scripts (crosstool-ng-linaro) and follow the README, you should have the gdb patched automatically. You can get the build scripts and READE at https://launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-binaries/+download.

The error message is "Im sorry, Dave, I can't do that. Symbol format `elf32-littlearm' unknown'." I searched on google, and leads me to the page https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-binaries/+bug/918937

I configured linaro-toolchain to build a native gdb for arm platform, both native gdb and cross-gdb can't work, they report the same error message.

Is there any way I can get the patch?

1) Download crosstool-ng-linaro-1.13.1-4.8-2013.06.tar.bz2 from https://launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-binaries/+download. 2) unzip it 3) The patch is crossstool-ng.../contrib/linaro/patches/gdb/linaro-7.6-2013.05/libintl-as-lib.patch

If it does not work, please try our standard build process.

Thanks! -Zhenqiang
