Hi Alex,

Can you show us the output of running apt-cache policy gcc-arm-none-eabi?

Best regards.

Hey, thanks for the reply! Here you go:

odroid@odroid:~/GitHub/ardupilot/ArduCopter$ apt-cache policy gcc-arm-none-eabi

Hi Alex,

Unfortunately PPA system does not build packages for armhf by default (how ironic I know) which is why the package is not available to you.

That doesn't make any sense. Would there be any way to get the newest version of gcc-arm-none-eabi for my Ubuntu device?

I really need it to continue on a project.

This question was expired because it remained in the 'Open' state without activity for the last 15 days.

Hi Alex,

I investigated this further and the actual problem is that the toolchain takes a long time to build on ARM and the PPA terms of service ask to not build on a machine for more than 30 minutes. I'll see if we can have an exception and will report back to you.

Best regards.

Hey Thomas,

I recently found out that I don't need to use this on my Odroid, so you don't need to worry about the issue.

I was confused about which gcc build it needed, and it turns out that this wasn't the right one.

Thanks again for all your help.

I am having the same problem, albeit with 4.9.3.2015q2-1trusty1 as it seems a newer version is now available (4.9.3.2015q3-1trusty1).

We'd prefer to not chase down any newer versions and avoid install errors in our scripts, so is there a way to always point at the latest release -or- continue to host older versions?

Cheers,

Rob

Hi Rob,

What is the output of dpkg --print-architecture? If it is i386 or amd64, can you show the output of apt-cache policy gcc-arm-none-eabi?

Best regards.

Hi Thomas, I'm also having the same issue. dpkg... outputs amd64 and this is the results of apt-cache...

  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 4.9.3.2015q3-1trusty1
  Version table:
     4.9.3.2015q3-1trusty1 0
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/terry.guo/gcc-arm-embedded/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
     4.8.2-14ubuntu1+6 0
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Tristan,

What is the problem exactly then? 4.9.3.2015q3-1trusty1 is the latest version available. You should be able to install it with apt-get install gcc-arm-none-eabi=4.9.3.2015q3-1trusty1

Best regards,

Thomas
