If you have read the previous posts about cross-compiling with gcc, you know that we need to install the cross-compiler first. This is not that difficult, but it has a few pitfalls. In particular, the one provided by ArchLinux by default does not work in our use case.

Now we’ve got ourselve a handy script for cross compiling, I think it’s time to introduce other means of cross compiliing and why I not using existing methods.

On last part, we managed to generate package by hand. While it works, having a script to do everything for us is even better. So I’ve wrote a small python script to automate the process.
