I enconter a problem I hope to be solved quickly.
I have grace to BUILDROOT compile a Linux zImage Kernel, build a rootfs, have a bootloader, so everething is right.
But at the boot, the system is so minimal that i don't have got some package manager like apt-get, yum, etc....
Despite the fact i've got the network (wget is possible), I don't know how to have a simply gcc in my host (Buildroot don't permit to compile gcc anymore) or more simply a package manager.
It is so boring to cross compile everything that I think the better solution is to apt-get packages, resolve dependencies and install it for an ARM architecture..
I recompile with Package manager options including IPKG and OPKG but the repositories don't work and the commands return nothing (I.E. ipkg --list, etc..)
Did someone had the same problems and what is the best way to have a good Package Manager on a minimal system compiled and build grace to Buildroot.
What is the best way to have anymore a Native compile toolchain on the ARM host ?
Thanks to your answers
My purpose is to natively compile my code including -lm -lpthread and LIRC module and header files on this minimal host system.

---- additional informations ---
hello,
i refresh this tag for set informations :
recently buildroot does no longer permit natively compile gcc package even if make and other tools are available on the recent buildroot distribution
gcc and other tags are marked as deprecated
so it is needed / obligated to cross compile on the host so what i did
for convenience, i've the Makefile for my code with dependencies for pthread and lirc_client
If anybody interested, ask me,
stef, France
