gdb installation
zix
I am trying to install gdbmod from gdb-6.4. I am cross compiling
for arm
architecture(target arm, host i386). Earlier, I was testing it on my
machine without any
flags for cross compilation. Now, when I am cross compiling, I am
getting the error that it was compiled for i686, now its being
compiled for arm. I have removed the gdb -6.4 directory and did a
fresh installation, still the issue remains. I have given the option
of
--cache-file=/dev/null,. still the issue remains. Can anybody please
help me out. Am stuck horribly.
heres the log:

Thanks Everybody,
zix
zix
should do it before configure. Even if we are extracting onto a fresh
new directory for the first time.
Hope this helps someone in similar distress..
