Building PS2SDK toolchain on Ubuntu 9.10 and higher

**mike.fallopian** · 08-07-2010,02:17 PM

Has anybody tried to build PS2SDK toolchain on Ubuntu 9.10 or 10.04?

I had lots of problems compiling GCC from the svn trunk of the toolchain. After some time, I realized that all the problems are due to this line in couple of Makefile.in files:

STAMP = echo timestamp >

When I replaced this with

STAMP = touch

it all worked.

Has anybody some idea why this happens? I think I installed all the prerequisites (i.e. dependencies) mentioned in one of the posts somewhere. I mean, although I got it running, it would be nice if the toolchain would compile out of the box.

Have you ever tried to install the PS2SDK from the bitbucket-repository?

I've successfully built the toolchain on both versions (with default gcc 4.4.x).

Check out:

Thanks, I wasn't aware of this repository. It compiled out of the box.
