Cross-compiling Q

Feb 28, 2006 0 Replies

I'm trying to set up my final build environment....



I am cross-compiling qt embedded among other things...



How do I go about setting up all of the assorted --prefix vars so that the build finds the correct ARM libs and installs in the correct place, but the binaries then contain the correct paths?



So... Let me explain a bit.



My qte source is in /usr/local/src/qt*.



My target file system is in /usr/local/arm



If I configure with


-prefix /usr/local/arm/



then that entire path gets hard-coded in the qt binary... But I can't just give it / as prefix since that will hose my build box...



This problem is not unique to qt; I have the same issues with other binaries...



How have people resolved this?



Basically I need a xbuildinstalldir and an execdir that are different....



Thanks,


--Yan
