Hi all,
I'm working on getting OE to build gdb-6.7.1.atmel.1.0.3 for the AVR32. I
have the gdb-cross working, but gdb is a little tricker. gdb has not been
ported to be hosted on the AVR32, so do_compile() quits when running the
gdb/configure script.
It does support building gdbserver for the AVR32, though. Trouble is, there
doesn't seem to be an "easy" way to build just gdbserver. To build just
gdbserver, you run the gdb-${PV}/gdb/gdbserver/configure instead of
gdb-${PV}/configure. oe_runconf() substitutes the value of ${S} in. If you
try to modify ${S} so that oe_runconf() executes the correct configure
script, then ${S} is screwed up for do_patch() and the patches won't apply.
Any ideas on how to solve this dillemma?

How about building gdb completely but package only gdbserver.
Thanks

The problem is that gdb does not build, only gdbserver. I can't figure out a
way to get OE to build just gdbserver for me. oe_doconf() always wants to
run ${S}/configure, but I need it to run ${S}/gdb/gdbserver/configure. If I
change S, then the patching fails.
What would be cool is if oe_doconf() took an optional parameter telling it
where the configure script is, instead of always using ${S}/configure.
