Hildesheim, Germany - Pengutronix has released version 0.7.4 of the
Userland Build system PTXdist.

Highlights: 

	* Various packet updates all over the place

	* Support for crosstool-0.32 for toolchain compilation, 
	  including uClibc toolchains

	* Proxy support in 'make setup'

	* Initial ipkg packaging mechanism for easier in-system
	  update of embedded systems; this turns PTXdist into a
	  packet based distro construction tool. 

PTXdist is a GPL licensed tool which can be used to customize Linux and
the GNU userland for all kinds of embedded systems, like PLCs, data
loggers, firewalls etc. It provides a kconfig configuration system and a
Makefile based framework to document how an embedded Linux was created.
The archive is small and downloads all necessary source archives from
the original web sites with wget.  

The release can be found on the PTXdist homepage:
