Please add x86_64-elf binutils and gcc to official repos

[doronbehar]

Hello everyone,

I would like to compile on my Raspberry Pi packages for my x86_64 computer. In order to do so I need the gcc and binutils packages compiled for use to the `x86_64` target. There is an aur package for it but it is outdated.

I think arm users of Arch Linux could make use of this package a lot, just as non arm Arch Linux users use the package - https://www.archlinux.org/packages/comm ... -binutils/ to compile software for arm.

Seems crazy to me to shift compilation to a cell phone

I don't think a lot of people would use it, because if it is a recent package to compile it will take forever compared to an normal desktop machine and compared to the compilation power I would not be so sure if the pi still is more power efficient.

Nevertheless you should also compile the package yourself, just get the PKGBUILD of the repos:
