Requesting Pre-Compiled and Tested Binaries for STM32 DISCOVERY

[Sagar Rathi]

Dear fedora lovers,

Can you please give pre-compiled tool-chain binaries for STM32 board in
fedora electronic spin.

Also i request that...
There must be a software in fedora spin for micro-controller through which
we can select our micro-controller model and than that software
automatically download and install the required tool-chain for it.
And this must be a single click for us.

Why i am requesting this is because it will attract more electronic user to
Linux.

Thank You in advance......

By 'toolchain' I assume you mean the cross-compiler/linker, binary 
downloader/flasher and a debugger. THere's arm-none-eabi-gcc/binutils,
and openOCD. The STMicro's toolchain is not open sourced so it can't be 
included in Fedora.

THere are many toolchains: just for ARM there is a dozen or so, and then 
you have various Atmels, PICs, MSP430s etc. etc. Most of them are not 
FOSS, so they can't even be part of Fedora, even if they did run under it.

arm-none-eabi is not packaged in Fedora, and the arm-none-eabi from
gnu.org is very difficult to build and compile; However, there is an
alternative which is actively maintained by ARM:
https://launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded

If I can get at least four co-maintainers, I'm willing to package it.

And I want a software in fedora, where I can type the name of an idiot,
and then that software automatically transfers $1000 from the idiot's
account into mine. And it must be a single click.

Please remember that we cannot just ship pre-compiled binaries in
Fedora. We need to be able to rebuild any package from source, if
required.

gcc-arm-linux-gnu, eclipse-edt, openocd that you requested are already
available in Fedora Electronic Lab. stlink is not yet available in
Fedora.
