I've been working with a dev on building a tool to make IDBs for IRIX. It's written in C99 and should build on IRIX without any issues.
It's not yet released, as I have to pay him and we gotta work out bugs, but it works like this:
root@murasaki ~ % ./genidb -s /usr/nekoware/dist/neko_gcc6.5.0.spec -p /opt/gcc9
(-s) Input Spec: /usr/nekoware/dist/neko_gcc6.5.0.spec
(-p) Path: /opt/gcc9
Working through specified path: /opt/gcc9
IDB output file: /usr/nekoware/dist/neko_gcc6.5.0.idb
Parsed Spec File
Scanning files in: /opt/gcc9
Completed with 965 entries and 125 rejections
We will continue to improve it's autodetection and such, but it's a convenient tool for those who may wanna avoid swpkg (e.g. for cross-compilation or whatnot)
