If you want to cross-compile easily, use a distribution that's designed to do so -- I can heartily recommend openembedded / The Yocto Project.
I looked at this. But having all the packages available as RPMS managed by zypper is a handy thing.
While it is possible to do a ARM sysroot installation and then use a cross-compiler with --sysroot= ..., it is painful (on openSUSE) and the number of possible mistakes to make is huge (and many of them are subtle, even more the problems you'll run into because of this subtle mistakes), so I would not recommend this to you, especially if you have to ask here how to do it ;-)
I have ideas how to do it. I already do this type of thing with a number of other pieces of hardware. What I was exploring was if there was something I had missed for ARM and openSUSE. Like maybe there was a build like the Windows build that puts everything in a separate tree and all packages are noarch. One never knows what one may find somewhere on OBS. I suspect I will go the real hardware routs and just keep a Raspberry PI 3 on the local network. It is already working fine. -- Roger Oberholtzer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
