    1.13 +      Force extraction of already exctracted tarballs.
    1.14 +      
    1.15 +      Usefull if you suspect a previous extract did not complete (eg. broken
    1.16 +      tarball), or you added a new set of patches for this component.

    1.23 +      Override tools' versions of config.guess and config.sub with the ones
    1.24 +      from crosstool-NG. This means that all instances of config.guess and
    1.25 +      config.sub in gcc, binutils, glibc, etc... will be replaced.
    1.26 +
    1.27 +      Most of the time, the versions of those scripts found in packages are old
    1.28 +      versions, thus lacking some target definitions. This is the case for
    1.29 +      uClibc-based tuples in old versions of gcc and gdb, for example.
    1.30 +
    1.31 +      Also, doing so will guarantee that all components have the same tuples
    1.32 +      definitions for your target, and not diverging ones.
    1.33 +
    1.34 +      You can update the ones provided with crosstool-NG by first running:
    1.35 +        ct-ng updatetools
    1.36 +      in the directory where you want to run crosstool-NG prior to the build.
    1.37 +

    1.39 +    bool
    1.40 +    prompt "Stop after extracting tarballs"
    1.41 +    default n
    1.42 +    help
    1.43 +      Exit after unpacking and patching tarballs.
    1.44 +      
    1.45 +      Usefull to look at the code before doing the build itself.
