Hello there, be gentle this is my first time in this forum and I am very new to the world of compilers and cross compilers! Trying to get the OpenELEC XBMC image compiled for my Rasberry Pi, my base system is Lubuntu 12.04 (Virtual Box VM) with the prerequisites completed as per the WiKi but after a few hours of cimpilation it all halted with the following error:

/home/markyd/OpenELEC.tv/build.OpenELEC-RPi.arm-devel/toolchain/lib/gcc/armv6zk-openelec-linux-gnueabi/4.7.0/../../../../armv6zk-openelec-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: /home/markyd/OpenELEC.tv/build.OpenELEC-RPi.arm-devel/eglibc-2.15-18222/objdir-eglibc/libc.so: hidden symbol `__start___libc_subfreeres' isn't defined

..... anyone got any ideas?

I managed to fix this by changing in the file /OpenELEC.tv/config/path

change (line 109)
export CCACHE_DIR=$HOME/.ccache-openelec

to

export CCACHE_DIR=$ROOT/$BUILD/.ccache-openelec

this get me past the error with eglibc-2.15-18222

but I haven't tried the new images...

.... cheers, I won't pretend to understand how you figured that out file edited and going in for another run ... will post results as soon as I have them, cheers!

I cant take credit for it...
I found it on the Raspberry pi forum

www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=5163&p=79282

boo hisss I did have hi hope but alas to no avail ...

hmm... strange... I had the same problem and after I changed CCACHE_DIR it worked..
have u tried starting from scratch with new git clone, change CCACHE_DIR then make?
