Yes, these are the rebuilds from beuc. A quickly done Replicant 6.0 SDK
would be not much different. I think Paul changed the update url and
disabled stats by default for the Replicant 4.2 SDK. Maybe a few other
changes also affected the SDK.

I tried to get rid of a lot of prebuilts and to build most parts of the
toolchain from source. As far as I understand, the sdk target just
builds everything, all targets including tests. So a lot of prebuilts
have to be readded and there could be multiple conflicts with the
current toolchain in Replicant 6.0 that would break the build. So this
is what I fear would take some time which would be better spend
elsewhere.

Best regards,
Wolfgang
