problems (98% sure they are mine....) building crosstool-ng

[bradshawlupton]

Hi, I am trying to build the firmware and unable to get through the building of crosstool-ng prior to building the firmware.

Most likely me, as a 30 year firmware guy, love the downloadable firmware, dying to jump in!! .

Trying to build the most vanilla versions to start. I appreciate the community guidance.

Thanks Bradshaw in Buzzards Bay MA 3 stones throws from the Army Corps of Engineers RailRoad Bridge over the Canal.

Can you attach the mentioned build.log file?

Sure, thanks, here is the link to my full sick log.

Hey, a totally different way to solve MY problem.

I would happily send a paypal equivalent of a dunkin donuts coffee and sandwich to the first person who sends me
a TGZ of /opt/Espressif that works with my Ubuntu 64 bit 15.04 . I love to work for food, and will
very gladly, appreciatively, reciprocate.

Its a fun! funny! working paradigm for 2016. Bradshaw

Just checking: did you do this step?
sudo apt-get install git autoconf build-essential gperf bison flex texinfo libtool libncurses5-dev wget gawk libc6-dev python-serial libexpat-dev libtool-bin

If you did (or if that didn't work), could you try
apt-get install g++
and then re-try?
