Thanks, I am now using ELDK too. It works for me, thanks!

The question remaining is how I can rebuild some  ELDK package,
where I tend to patch everything,  including  glibc, etc  core  packages.

The git-clone does not work for me with git::// schema, and where is
the CD with  building  env and  tarballs  , etc.
