I'm trying to build a CT toolchain.

When I

ct-ng build

[INFO ] Build started 20140827.224505

[ERROR] (elapsed: 7:53.66)
[07:54] / gmake: *** [build] Error 1

Checking, it's because www.eglibc.org/svn.eglibc.org is down. It's been down for at least 1 1/2 days afaict.

I can't find any svn mirrors of svn.eglibc.org. Is there any alternative to the svn dl. so I can get a toolchaing built?

Eglibc does not create "releases". And there are no mirrors of their
svn repository.
AFAIK, eglibc is dead anyways. Last time I checked the eglibc svn (a
few days ago) the last change was in June. Coincidently, twitter has
this post in June:

Debian has also switched back to glibc from eglibc for the same reason
(also in June 2014):

I would say, it's probably down, because that project is dead. Use
glibc or uclibc.

Switched to glibc. No more error for C-Library, for now.

Thanks
