+Description: create your own cross toolchains
+ Crosstool-NG aims at building toolchains. Toolchains are an essential
+ component in a software development project. It will compile, assemble and
+ link the code that is being developed.
+ .
+ The usual toolchain is called "native" and is in packages
+ like 'clang' and 'gcc' (This package is not needed for doing
+ native development).
+ .
+ This package is for generating toolchains when doing development
+ on a foreign architecture (when you need a cross compiler).
