<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" ><tr><td valign="top" style="font: inherit;">Hi all:<br>but indeed if we were building such a cross-development environment like say eg I386_MINGW, else anything like that we would have several possible targets (for instance some application compiled under X Window and some others for native GUI, granted potentially the C compiler linker fits there) as AMD64_INTERIX, etc.<br>Tjis cases could create a problem to package everything in just one tar ball, it would be more a modular thing as you say, again I coincide that the cost of what we can host is better, but there are this issues we could somehow get into play. Anyway, it is maybe a cross-development issue rather than native issue, but it certainly begs some attention if I may say so.<br><br>Thanks in advance<br><br>--- El <b>jue, 16/6/11, Jay K <i><jay.krell@cornell.edu></i></b> escribió:<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16,
