Re: compiling GBDK on gnu/linux
UPDATE:
as it seemed the reason it was not compiling is the sdcc version was old and used old c syntax i replaced the sdcc folder with newer source code and all seems fine
but i am not getting this error:
/bin/bash: ppc-unknown-linux2.2-ar: command not found
make[4]: *** [libiberty.a] Error 127
make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/tom/gbdk/sdcc/support/sdbinutils/libiberty'

make[2]: *** [all] Error 2

make[1]: *** [sdcc-sdbinutils] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/tom/gbdk/sdcc'

dose anyone know what is causing this?

Re: compiling GBDK on gnu/linux
You don't have ppc-unknown-linux2.2-ar in your path. See if you have the correct binutils for your platform. Also check if your host-triplet is correct (ppc: power-pc?). Finally, try $> which gcc. This should tell you where your gcc is located (possibly try $> which ppc-unknown-linux2.2-gcc). Look for a plain ar in that directory. If there is, set a symbolic link to it (as, you guessed it, ppc-unknown-linux2.2-ar) and try make again.

Re: compiling GBDK on gnu/linux
Dude, seriously. If you're on MacOS, you have to look for stuff yourself. See to it that you have a working toolchain to compile c source code and run it. Make sure you're familiar with every tool. After that, you can jump into cross-compiling. Make sure you have the right prefix and bintutils for all of your tools. If "which ppc-unknown-linux2.2-gcc" doesn't yield any output for you, you have to make sure you have the right toolchain installed for the job. Go small steps until you understand what every tool is used for.

Re: compiling GBDK on gnu/linux
i am tom lukeywood
i have quit youtube do to the many bad things about it e.g
censorship
forcing google plus on the site's users
its centralized so google have all the control and its users have none
spying on its users and data mining
using non-libreJavaScript on the site(although you can get around it by watching this tutorial(https://goblinrefuge.com/mediagoblin/u/ … uirements/))
etc etc
so any future videos i will now post on my site:
http://pika.jadedfs.net/
also for a decentralized alternative to you check out:
http://mediagoblin.org/
but getting to this question:
what do you want me to make a tutorial about?
