How to fix this issue

[kemzeb]

Hi @lohitslohit, I would recommend asking this question in the #build-problems channel on Discord as contributors and maintainers are much more active there and would all be able to see your problem much more easily (the Discord link should be in the README). I would try to help you myself but I haven't taken the time to understand the magic that is the Serenity toolchain 😅.

On top of asking there you can also try searching for keywords like "is not a full path to an existing compiler tool" using Discord's search feature to see if you can use any solutions that were mentioned during that time.

This error means that the build of the GCC cross compiler failed. Please re-run Toolchain/BuildGNU.sh and check the last ~50 lines of output to see what it is complaining about. Any followups should happen in #build-problems on discord, like kemzeb said.
