Yes, some of those patches are needed just to keep at91bootstrap build using newer toolchains. > > So another Idea: From what I understand, Upstream for this is dead, so > > there will be no new version, right?

(We never tried that.) Same here.

Even if you remove package completely I can always keep local copy inside BSP. Or even better give barebox SPL try some rainy autumn day ;-) > > Michael > > Greets > Alex _______________________________________________ ptxdist mailing list ptxdist@pengutronix.de
