Re: [ft] Cross compiling for arm (python for android)

[suzuki toshiya]

Hi Oliver,

According to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10650897/ :

checking whether the arm-linux-androideabi-gcc -DANDROID -mandroid  
-fomit-frame-pointer --sysroot 
/home/oly/.buildozer/android/platform/android-ndk-r9d/platforms/android-14/arch-arm
 linker (arm-linux-androideabi-ld) supports shared libraries... yes
checking whether -lc should be explicitly linked in... no
checking dynamic linker characteristics... no
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
checking whether stripping libraries is possible... yes
checking if libtool supports shared libraries... no
checking whether to build shared libraries... no

the linker supports the shared library but libtool
script could not detect how to build the shared library
(thus give it up). Do you have any other free software
that you could build shared library by
"./configure --host=arm-eabi && make"?

Regards,
mpsuzuki
