Debian (titchy) Vs. Debian Eabi ?

[ZDevil]

I would stay with EABI. For one thing I am the kinda "need for speed" user. So it is hard for me to let my Z go back to slower way.

There are two solutions to the broken packages in EABI:
1) Report this to the relevant place (mailing list?)
2) Make our own packages (set up a custom feed)

AFAIK building under EABI is way faster than under OABI, so I suppose rebuilding is not so undoable.  

Even though most ARM packages work, but not all work so perfectly. It seems resource taxing programs, like gimp, games, audio-visual apps, may run a bit sluggishly in OABI.


And the others?

I'll stick to EABI for now, now I got finally got X configured, I'm beginning to like it ...  
Anyway, it is the future, isn't it ?

Chero, I see your signature says 2.6.22.9, or are you using 2.6.23.1 now?

whow! i've just tried to compile mutt from sources...
mutt compiled faster than speed and it works !
whow! well i think debian eabi is now jpmatrix certified  now we've to start a global package compilation process

Yes, I also just got my compilation toolbox set up. Time to reap the fresh meat apart...
