Description: Build toolchains for cross-compilation
Crosstool Next Generation is all-in-one solution for generating
toolchains for cross-compilation.

The tool allows a developer to select and build specific versions
of the tools (gcc, g++, glibc/eglibc, etc.)

Samples of working configurations are included and can be located
in the /usr/share/ct-ng-1.5.0/samples directory.
-- cut -----------------------------------------------------------

rpmlint results:
 * devel-file-in-non-devel-package -- 21 times:
   - The relevant files are used by crosstool-ng during runtime, when
     it build the toolchain configured by the developer.
   - Since crosstool-ng is itself a development tool, there is no point
     in naming it crosstool-ng-devel (since there won't be any crosstool-ng
     base package).
   - This is very similar to MinGW guidelines:
      http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MinGW/Rpmlint
 * non-executable-script -- 5 times:
   - These are actually script templates which are configured by crosstool-ng
     during the toolchain building process.
   - I initially patched crosstool-ng so they'll be executable. However,
     after talking with upstream I was convinced to drop this patch.
