## Build
If you want to build PbDbFixer yourself, make sure that you have Rust's toolchain target `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi` as well as the GCC cross compiler for ARM CPUs installed. On **Arch** Linux, the AUR package `arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc75-linaro-bin` does the job. On **Debian**, you have to install the package `gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi`. Don't forget to tell `cargo` which compiler/linker it has to invoke. In my case, I had to edit `~/.cargo/config`:
If you want to build PbDbFixer yourself, make sure that you have Rust's toolchain target `armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabi` installed. Additionaly, you should use [PocketBook's SDK](https://github.com/pocketbook/SDK_6.3.0/tree/6.5) for being able to cross-compile specific for these devices. Don't forget to tell `cargo` which compiler/linker it has to invoke. In my case, I had to edit `~/.cargo/config.toml`:
```
[target.arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi]
linker = "arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc"
```
Now you can easily compile the stuff by invoking
```
cargo build --release --target=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi
[target.armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabi]
linker = "SDKs/PB/SDK_6.3.0/SDK-B288/usr/bin/arm-obreey-linux-gnueabi-gcc"
```

Now you can easily compile the stuff. Note that you have to tell where the libraries are located (`LD_LIBRARY_PATH`):
```
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HOME/SDKs/PB/SDK_6.3.0/SDK-B288/usr/lib" cargo build --release --target=armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabi
```
