I restructured the http://gdcproject.org/wiki/Installation page, I hope it's OK this way.

I also added a Raspberry Pi overview page http://gdcproject.org/wiki/Raspberry Pi and a new installation guide for raspbian http://gdcproject.org/wiki/Raspberry%20Pi/build/raspbian_hardfloat would be great if someone could test the raspbian guide and report any success or failures. It works for me, but I'm not sure if I forgot to document some details.

@Iain the home page (http://gdcproject.org/wiki/Home) could need some
small updates:

Frontend version still says 2.059 and links to the 2.057 changelog.

There are still some references to the old issue tracker:
"A bug, proposal, or enhancement can go to the issue tracker on
bitbucket."
"This list is still maintained, however, new bugs should be submitted
to the Bitbucket repository."

And this should probably be changed to refer to git commits:
"Include the hg changeset or commit you are using for GDC. (e.g. commit
114 or changset 6f03952ff48f)"

If you give me permission to edit the home page (user JohannesPfau) I
can fix those, if not that's fine as well ;-)

BTW:
Would it be possible to add links to the gdcproject.org main page,
github repository, bug tracker and D.gnu forum to the wiki Quick links
list?

Fixed them - mostly.  I see a bit of spam has creeped in (oh noes!).  This might take me an hour to clean out as I can't seem to remove pages in bulk.

In the meantime, I have added some silly textcha's - so sorry for the inconvenience!

I could certainly add you to an admin group if only I knew how. :-)

Regards
Iain

OK, worked out how to remove them in bulk.  If anyone was zealous enough to create a page in their own name, I'm sorry but you've have your account removed. :P

Thanks a lot for this - it would have taken ages for me to trace that stuff down.

Not sure if this is necessary, but I also installed 'patchutils' because "rules clean" complained about 'lsdiff' missing.

However, I'm now still getting the error below.

PS: the wiki page seems to have been deleted during the spam clean up. If you need the contents of the raspian_hardfloat page, the page is still open in my browser so I can still copy them out.

I moved the page, seems the wiki doesn't add a redirect automatically. The new url is http://gdcproject.org/wiki/Raspberry%20Pi/build/Raspbian%28Hardfloat%29 but it's also linked from the Install page.

Could you
post /home/pi/develop/GDC/objdir/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libgcc/config.log
please?

Ok, I see. I was quickly searching for a way on the wiki to the page but did just look in the developer section.

Attached.

Back online and finished last tweaks.  By the way, how's the styling doing for you?  I'm not really much of an eye for design...

I've had this issue before. The armhf-triplet.diff patch (shipped with debian sources) wasn't applied for some reason. So something went wrong when running "debian/rules patch". In my case I had to install the "lsb-release" package. It's included in the "Installing packages" command on the wiki page though, but maybe you've overlooked it?

Anyway, you should run "debian/rules clean" and then "debian/rules patch" again and see if there's some suspicious output.

Great, thanks!

I think it's quite good. I don't really like the red text color in the 'code boxes', but everything else looks great.

OK it was the package 'quilt' that was missing. Also the regex did not work for me, I changed it to just '^4\.7$' and then the setup went ok. I'm now compiling again.
