Re: Alternate GCC Toolchain

Hi there! I've been reluctant to install via the packages due to my infinitely small understanding of aptitude packages. I've installed the new build scripts though since there are updates to the toolchain file in there. I just installed with the following commands after checking out the powerpc-wrs-vxworks-buildscripts repo.
Code:
cmake .
make && sudo make install
The new ld script that the toolchain file now references for non-gccdist toolchains doesn't appear to be in my compiler installation. Is there somewhere where I should be getting it, or is installed by a package?

Also: should I just switch to the packages, even if I'm planning on actively developing if I find a bug/missing feature?
