Releases msp430 packages for Ubuntu

[Adam Horden]

Hi All,

I now have working packages for Ubuntu for both Jaunty and Karmic. I
have done some testing but I still want to release these as an alpha
release until I get some feedback to ensure the packages work correctly.
These are my first Ubuntu packages so I am expecting a few bugs. I have
not found any bugs on my two dev machines, and I am getting a little
paranoid I might have missed something! I am getting everything into
place so the next release of Ubuntu has these packages in the main tree.

There are in a Launchpad PPA at present:
https://launchpad.net/~adamhorden/+archive/msp430
<https://launchpad.net/%7Eadamhorden/+archive/msp430>

I am looking at automatically building releases each day with a patch
generated from CVS against upstream sources. I all ready have the
patches automatically generated each day via my php msp430_mirror script
running internally. This would ensure the packages are all ways up to
date. Think its worthwhile?

The packages currently only work on Jaunty. This is because Karmic has
dropped support for gcc-3.4. I will build the version of gcc from Bazaar
in the next week or so. I am still playing with the stuff in Bazaar.
What is the current state of this project? Is it ready to be built into
development releases?

To use the packages assuming your on Ubuntu Januty:

sudo nano /etc/sources/sources.list and append to the bottom:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/adamhorden/msp430/ubuntu jaunty main

deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/adamhorden/msp430/ubuntu jaunty main

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 9CC544B7

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install msp430-binutils msp430-gcc msp430-libc msp430-gdb

Hi Adam,

It has been a few weeks. Any word on the Karmic package?

Thanks,
