here is my patch to make elf2flt compile properly on debian platform....

thorsten, here's how to apply it....

1) save the patch into ~/download/elf2flt.diff

2) cd ~/buildroot

3) patch -p0 <~/download/elf2flt.diff

4) rm -rf toolchain_build_nios2/elf2flt

5) make

hippo, does this patch look allright to you?

will it have any affect on non-debian users?

should something like this go in svn?

Hootsmon,

I have tested the patch on FC5. The elf2flt works well. Good job.

Could you post the patch to buildroot group of bug report on busybox.net ?
