By following our previous blog Build
GCC, we should be able to CROSS-BUILD GCC for
various ARM architectures. Today, we are building GCC 9.1.0 for Hikey 970, which
is of aarch64
architecture. (More details about aarch64 can be found
on ARM
architecture )

Today, let's try to build the MOST RECENTGCC 9.1. We strictly follow the
TERRIFIC blog How
to Build a GCC Cross-Compiler with trivial modifications for my
x86_64 desktop instead of aarch64
cross compile.
Preparations
Packages Required on HOST
Some packages are required to install on the host computer,
including: * g++ * make * gawk * bison * flex * expect * gnat etc.
Get ALL Packages for Building
GCC
A wget-list.txt
file is provided to download ALL required packages
up-to-date. After having downloaded this single text file, the
UNIQUE command to download all files is as follows:
1
➜ gcc ✗ wget -i wget-list.txt
You can of course download the files one by one. All concerned files
are listed below: *
https://gnu.freemirror.org/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.32.tar.gz *
https://gnu.freemirror.org/gnu//gcc/gcc-9.1.0/gcc-9.1.0.tar.gz *
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/linux-5.1.12.tar.gz
* https://ftp.gnu.org/glibc/glibc-2.29.tar.xz *
https://ftp.gnu.org/mpfr/mpfr-4.0.2.tar.xz *

ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure/cloog-0.18.1.tar.gz
Then, we extract all .tar files in whatever way you
prefer.

3. Enable SSH
Auto Start SSH Service After
Booting
After having successfully enabled SSH, you are able
to login Orange Pi
3 remotely. Well, you may still need to figure out how to:
setup Wifi for Orange Pi 3, which
is pretty simple with Ubuntu Desktop GUI
further setup static IP addresses in your router for both Wifi and
Wired connections

For the 1st time, we successfully had distro-info, Markdown,
Pygments, PyGObject installed, but failed to install
pycups. For the 2nd time, after
libcups2-dev had been installed from Ubuntu repository,
we had pycups installed successfully.
However, we still have one LAST issue: why
distro-info is still oudated? ^_^ Can anybody give me
an explanation?

Create a script called gdb in e.g. my home
directory, containing: pkexec /usr/bin/gdb "$@"
make it executable
modify the launch.json in VSCode to
call the script (obviously change username accordingly) by adding
miDebuggerPath:

Please see https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5599 for advice on fixing the underlying issue. To avoid this problem you can invoke Python with '-m pip' instead of running pip directly.
Therefore, python -m pip is used instead:

several types of Single Board Computers. I've got to
say: Made In China is amazing. Banana Pi M3 is a
SBC with AllWinner
A83T ARM CPU, which is also of credit-card size. Some detailed
features can be found on the open source technical supporter Sunxi. Please pay attention to
