Cross emerges which use 'orbit-idl-2' try running a binary from the target

[Daniel Benoy]

I've been trying to emerge stuff like gconf, and I get errors like this:

/usr/armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/usr/bin/orbit-idl-2 ./GConfX.idl
/usr/armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/usr/bin/orbit-idl-2: cannot execute binary file

(Full build log of gconf will be included. I'm using parallel make so it may look a little funny)

It should be calling /usr/bin/orbit-idl-2 .. My workaround for this so far has been to compile natively. Does anyone know a better answer?

[Daniel Benoy]

At least, I *imagine* it should be calling that from the host. It doesn't produce something platform specific, I hope?

try gconf-2.24.0 from overlay, it contains a fix

Thanks. I got much farther, but now it's doing this:

... during the install stage.

Please make sure you installed libtool-2.2.6a from the overlay on your host!

I got it working.. not sure what I did..
