gcc used to be installed into $(HOST_DIR)/usr/$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) but since gcc 4.9 this is no longer the case. Therefore, the cc -> gcc symlink that is created in that we create in that directory is dead. There don't seem to have been any problems due to the missing gcc and cc in $(HOST_DIR)/usr/$(GNU_TARGET_NAME), things seems to build fine without it. The cc -> gcc symlinks in general should not be needed anyway, since we always pass the appropriate CC variable to the package build system. Therefore, let's remove the cc -> gcc symlink in $(HOST_DIR)/usr/$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) - also for pre-4.9 gcc versions.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
