HI Folks: I have problem to merge binary packages into my cross env. Let me make it clear, I've setup cross develop evironment in my Desktop, say the path is /usr/armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi. And I find x11-libs/cairo-1.8.8-r1 will fail when do cross compile, so I compile it natively on my ARM board, it pass successfullly, So I package it up, swith back to my cross environment, using "emerge-armv7a-softfloat-linux-gnueabi -k cairo", strangly it refuse to merge the binary package but try to compile it directly. This problem not always happen, for some packages I compiled on my ARM board, do install successful on my cross env Why? Attached png, shows that green-colored packages will be compiled even there do exist binary packages. Dennis Lan
