Re: [gpsd-users] EXT :Re: Cross Compiling gpsd using Sourcery G++

[Kuhn, Thomas J (IS)]

I am compiling right now.  Is there any thing that needs to be set to 
statically link?  It looks thike from some messages I read that 3.15 is 
statically linked (and newer versions???)

I'm not an scons or cross-compiling guy, maybe someone can chime in on those 
topics.

Have you considered just natively compiling on your target, or something 
similar?

For $35 you aould get a RasPi2, put your code there, and native compile.
That would build just like you native built on your laptop.  Link everything 
static, then just copy the gpsd binary to your target.

My RasPi2 is about as fast as my 5 year old netbook, so not really an 
inconvenience to native compile anymore.
