Hi,

I am trying to cross-compile webkit on Linux-x86 machine for ARM 
platform (target platform) using ARM-linux-gnu toolchain.

Can anybody let me know the steps to crosscompile webkit for ARM platform.

I want to know what arguments needed to be given as input for './configure'

Currently I am using the command :
./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=arm-softfloat-linux 
--target=arm 
CC=/opt/ptxdist-0.10.4/gcc-4.0.2-glibc-2.3.6/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu/bin/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-gcc 
CXX=/opt/ptxdist-0.10.4/gcc-4.0.2-glibc-2.3.6/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu/bin/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-g++ 
STRIP=/opt/ptxdist-0.10.4/gcc-4.0.2-glibc-2.3.6/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu/bin/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-strip 
AR=/opt/ptxdist-0.10.4/gcc-4.0.2-glibc-2.3.6/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu/bin/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-ar 
AS=/opt/ptxdist-0.10.4/gcc-4.0.2-glibc-2.3.6/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu/bin/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-as 
RANLIB=/opt/ptxdist-0.10.4/gcc-4.0.2-glibc-2.3.6/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu/bin/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-ranlib 
NM=/opt/ptxdist-0.10.4/gcc-4.0.2-glibc-2.3.6/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu/bin/arm-softfloat-linux-gnu-nm'

I am getting stuck at :

 >checking for jpeg_destroy_decompress in -ljpeg... no
 >configure: error: JPEG library (libjpeg) not found

Thanks in advance,
Jil
