Building cross toolchain but installing it in a user defined folder.
Hi,
I want to build a cross compiler toolchain using the "crossdev" utility
but want the utilities to be installed in a user defined folder rather
than in "/usr".
I tried making changes to the ROOT variable, but "crossdev" does not
accept ROOT other than "/".
Also, making changes to the "PREFIX" variable in "toolchain.eclass" did
not help.
Could anybody please help me?

there is no direct support for this. but the toolchains should all be
relocatable, so you could build a binary package and then extract them
wherever you want.
