[Clfs-dev] powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-ar libbfd-2.19.1.so: ELF file data encoding not little-endian

[Priya Sundararajan]

Hi all,
 I am trying to build a Cross linux system for PowerPC. I am working on
OpenSuse v10.3

I am following instructions available at
http://cross-lfs.org/view/svn/ppc/temp-system/binutils.html

I get the following error when trying to build Binutils-1.19.1 (Section 6.6)
. This is how my error message looks like -
=======================
libtool: link: powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-ar cru .libs/libbfd.a  archive.o

=======================

I tried CLFS 1.1.0 <http://cross-lfs.org/view/1.1.0/> and got the same error
there too.

Any information on fixing this would be very helpful.
Thanks and regards,
Priya
