gentoo-crossdev-podman

This repository contains a Makefile that can be used to build Gentoo crossdev toolchains and images. It leverages the power of Podman to build and install cross build tools on top of the official gentoo/stage3 image.

Building a Toolchain

Assuming Podman is configured properly on your system, all you need to do is run make.

Note

This Makefile defaults to building for a powerpc-unknown-linux-musl target. To run targets for something else, you'll need to specify a TARGET on the make command-line (e.g. make TARGET=i686-unknown-linux-musl).

For more information about these TARGET tuples, see here. You can also run make shell and then crossdev -t help for more information on supported targets.

Built prefixes live in the targets directory.

Making Additional Changes

You can install additional packages by running make shell TARGET=YOUR_TARGET followed by YOUR_TARGET-emerge PKG .. PKG_N.

For more information on how this works see this page and the Gentoo Handbook.
