Hello,
In most cross-compile environment there is a environment-variable $CROSS_COMPILE which reflects the toolchain.

As far as I understand this - when CROSS_COMPILE is not set (most not-cross-compile environments) - strip will require correct $PATH, which is bad (that's why full paths are always used).
You are right! The description of CROSS_COMPILE was not very good. This variable holds the host-infos of the runtime-platform. The CROSS_COMPILE is set (as example for a powerpc based crosscompiler) to "powerpc-linux-". A cross-compiler and a for-cross-compiler binutils-package, whose binaries starts with "powerpc-linux-" as prefix, exist in the (crosscompile-)system. /cc/powerpc/usr/bin/powerpc-linux-strip /cc/powerpc/usr/bin/powerpc-linux-ld /cc/powerpc/usr/bin/powerpc-linux-gcc /cc/powerpc/usr/bin/powerpc-linux-g++ .... . . The Makefiles of the Kernelsources are good examples. cd <KERNELSOURCES> grep -R CROSS_COMPILE * But I think, my patch is not good! We need a more configurable way, like a STRIP="/usr/bin/strip" in the makepkg.conf. For now, its all clear? Have a nice Day, eS.eF. -- -- S.
