I'm compiling Qemu with --enable-gtk enabled. .configure gives me the following error messages:

Run-time dependency gtk+-3.0 found: NO

../meson.build:1042:2: ERROR: Could not generate cargs for gtk+-3.0:

When compiling from source, we use .configure as the first step. .configure may call some other commands like cc which may fail and print error messages, like header not found or some other compile errors. But these error messages are not displayed on the standard console where I run .configure. This causes difficulty in troubleshooting because sometimes .configure will only tell you it fails. So,  ...

In the Amd64 version of Ubuntu, there's the gcc-{version}-{architecture}-linux-gnu packages that I can use to build binaries for different architectures, of which, the built binaries can be tested using qemu-user. But in Arm64 version of Ubuntu, there isn't such cross compiler.

Q1: Why isn't there such packages (as of 20.04 TLS)?

Next, I'd like to use the Clang/LLVM toolchain to build binaries in place  ...

I am trying to apply a patch to the gtk+3.0 on Ubuntu 21.10 and failing. But more importantly, even without applying the patches, I am unable to build the package.

I have not seen an answer for this make file error. It cannot find the linux/compiler-gcc.h or linux/compiler-gcc9.h? Trying to build "build root" embedded linux. Additionally it is stating include/linux/compiler-gcc.h:114:1: fatal error: linux/compiler-gcc9.h: No such file or directory.

What am I missing here? I looked through other posted solution, but to no avail.

Our turnkey application that runs on 20.04 requires the 5.13 kernel and the headers in that version's linux-libc-dev package that are installed under /usr/include/linux. It also requires a custom change to one of those header files. I have downloaded, built, installed, and am running the 5.13 kernel just fine on our target (amd64) VM. I can see the correctly modified header file in the source tree under ...

I have a program that is being shipped out for multiple Linux platforms and requires all of the references to be compiled within the executable itself.

I've gather that they would need to be compiled, the *.a library placed in a folder within the project, the "-I//location//" added in for the include headers, and the "-L//location//" added in for the libraries themselves.

But, for the question itsel ...
