On linux the build of the libs subdirectory failed because the configure script
libiconv/configure
is not chmod’d executable after a clean checkout from svn.
This can be fixed 2 ways:
chmod 755 libiconv/configure
or modify the Makefile command, instead of the
./configure –host=powerpc-eabi …
put “sh ” before the ./configure:
sh ./configure –host=powerpc-eabi …
then it won’t matter whether the configure script is chmod’d to be executable.
