this is only cosmetic but I find it easier to have several optional packages
than a big one
for exemple libjava is optional, we should be able to compile it without
recompile everything and more without having to redownload everything too
same apply to libiberty : this lib can be found in binutils, and is installed by
this package, but gcc component fail to build (if we do the ./configure into gcc
dir) if ../libiberty/liberty.a isn't present
we can do the same remarks for the c++ lib and most of subtree subpackages
doing this will ease to understand why crosscompile fail (at this time I found
that libjava don't take the right headers, but that in order to have him take
the right header I have to compile it differently than the rest of the package...)
I think that big package was the attribute of old fashioned projects and then
that all lib provided into gcc should now be provided as separate packages....
because this is cleaner and that we'll have a better view of what's going on
best regards and thank you for providing such quality tool
