Cross-compilation

For example, let's demonstrates how to cross-compile to raspberry pi using gcc linaro. Make you sure added arm architecture, see how to adds in debian flavors:

dpkg --add-architecture armhf
apt-get update

./build_opencv.sh -c configs/rpi_linaro.conf --build
# will be asked to download the dependencies, we recommended dependencies downloads locally. The script will configure pkg-config so that opencv's cmake will detect selected libraries in config.
# If you selected, for example, backend gstreamer, the script no ask if you wants download dependencies, use:
./build_opencv.sh -c configs/rpi_linaro.conf --dw-cross-deps "libgstreamer1.0-dev=armhf libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev=armhf"

# For next build
./build_opencv.sh -c configs/rpi_linaro.conf --clean # copy debian package before execute this command.
./build_opencv.sh -c configs/odroidc2.conf --build
