Hello,
U-Boot v1.3.3-rc2 has just been released.
PowerPC seems to be in a pretty good state now; other
architectures
still need a lot of testing / fixing. For example, on ARM
we see the
following conflicts:
--- snip ---
Configuring for netstar board... arm-linux-ld: cannot find -lgeneric make[1]: *** [eeprom.srec] Error 1
Configuring for voiceblue board... arm-linux-ld: cannot find -lgeneric make[1]: *** [eeprom.srec] Error 1
Wolfgang
I dont see the netstar or voiceblue failures with my installations of
arm-linux-gcc (GCC) 4.0.0 (DENX ELDK 4.0 4.0.0)
arm-linux-gcc (GCC) 3.4.2 (release) (CodeSourcery ARM Q3 2004)
, using the code obtained with git clone git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot.git.
Regards
Peter

You probably didn't try running something like
JOBS='-j4' ./MAKEALL netstar
on a SMP machine.
It turns out that the failing boards have (somewhat suspicious) dependencies on other libraries which are not taken care of in the Makefiles.
I'm working on a patch.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
