Hello,
+ Paul who showed some interest in this :)
About the bootstrap, I am not sure that copying the compiler in
debian/dl/ is the best way.
AFAIK, the "right" way to bootstrap a compiler:
* Build a local instance of the compiler on your system (whatever the
method is)
* Package the newly built compiler
* Use the package to build compiler
* Upload this package
Once the package is in the archive, use the official package to build
the new version of the compiler.
However, I might be wrong here. Correct me if it is the case.
After that, we will have to cross compile it for the other archs (ARM in
priority).
Cheers,
Sylvestre
