On your site you speak about Fedora 8 Linux, Aranym and EasyMint, and converting .tar.gz tp rpm using alien. I wonder which system is used to run the different steps, and which compiler (native GCC 2.95 on EasyMiNT or some cross compiler ?). Maybe you used Fedora only for obtaining the sources ? I just notice that "alien" is available for MiNT on the SpareMiNT site! I tried to use alien on Debian in order to build rpm packages for MiNT, without success because the rpm version is incompatible... That one will surely be better ! Anyway, that's good news you have compiled new software ! -- Vincent Rivière
