I'm working on getting my new build system up and running and with 13.10. Running any of our toolchain commands leads to "No such file or directory".
I had exactly the same problem.
I'm guessing this has to with my system being x86_64 and 13.10 no longer including ia32_libs package, but could be incorrect. If this is indeed the issue, my understanding is that I need to manually install 32 bit versions of every library that's needed. Can toolchain folks comment on this?
Yes, I assumed so too. I didn't know *which* libraries though, so I gave up in the end and reverted my machine to 12.10.
Any possibility of getting 64 bit native binaries or just having a repository that we can install from and thus auto-pull the dependent 32 bit libraries?
I was told "no" at Connect. The reasoning being very understandable: they *must* provide a 32 bit version. And having 2 versions is a support and validation headache.
I asked for a snapshot, unverified build. I'm ever hopeful :-)
given that [1] ubuntu no longer support ia32-libs in 13.10+ and [2] ubuntu has decided to switch to 64-bit by default, i believe we should provide an explicit note about how to run the 32-bit Linaro GCC on 64-bit machines, as it is wrong to either use a 32-bit OS install, or stay on an older OS version to workaround the problem ;-) The current README still refers to ia32-libs package.
