Heh? Debian cross toolchains work fine: https://packages.debian.org/sid/gcc-4.9-arm-linux-gnueabi for armel and https://packages.debian.org/sid/gcc-4.9-arm-linux-gnueabihf for armhf

Those packages haven't been in Debian for that long but I'm sure as hell glad they are.

Cross compilers are still really difficult.

Cool if you're running Debian.

[dima55]

Well, not having to build your own cross-compilers is a HUGE reason to run Debian. Other distros probably have packages too in any case.

OSX.

[dima55]

Right. Get something better.

Crosstool-NG will take care of that.

Find a vagrant Debian image and it doesn't much matter what you run.

Cross compiling is such a pain that it is worth avoiding it if at all possible.
