runit (1.0.5)

[Pascal de Bruijn <pmjdebruijn@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I noticed runit, which looks really great! I intend to use it on my
homebuilt embedded linux os, which runs on a PC-Engines WRAP board
(which are low powered x86 compatible boards).

I'm using buildroot/uclibc to build the embedded os. This is where the
trouble starts. buildroot more or less expects a standard autoconf
structure or at least something similar. And your build scripts don't
seem to allow for certain build parameters:

  --target=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) 
  --host=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) 
  --build=$(GNU_HOST_NAME) 

There build parameters are necessary because my compiler isn't called
just 'gcc' but 'i486-linux-gcc'. I'm basically cross compiling on the
from and to the same platform, because I don't want to rely on my
distribution supplied compiler.

Is there any convenient way to make this work?

Regards,
Pascal de Bruijn
