2.2a.1a Use rpm --noscripts. Nobody knows, what will happen, but one could expect, that the package will be still usable for compilation. It is obvious, that the target sysroot will not be usable by emulators directly.
2.2a.1b Use virtual host for installation. You will get a perfect image of the target system, but it is expected to be much slower.
Obviously 2.2a.1a is the only acceptable solution.
Actually, all you need to do is to copy a QEMU userspace emulator into the sysroot and set up binfmt_misc appropriately, and the scripts should work just fine. There will of course be ways to break this, but usually pre/post scripts do not do anything complicated or expensive.
It could work only for platforms, for which emulator exists. It will cost about 95% of power. If you will use native icecream hosts for parallel compilation, it will still cost about 80% of power (make has to run natively, linker will probably run natively as well. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SUSE LINUX, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec@suse.cz Lihovarská 1060/12 tel: +420 284 028 966 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 284 028 951 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-buildservice+help@opensuse.org
