Is there some documentation somewhere? It's in the GDB manual now, and it also applies to LD and GCC. For GDB it only amounts to: You can set the default value of @samp{solib-absolute-prefix} by using the configure-time @samp{--with-sysroot} option. For GCC and LD it's a great deal more thorough; it changes header search paths, library search paths, etc. -- Daniel Jacobowitz MontaVista Software Debian GNU/Linux Developer
