Toolchain building utilities
Another solution is to use utilities that automate the process of building the toolchain
Same advantage as the pre-compiled toolchains: you don't need to mess up with all the details of the build process
But also offers more flexibility in terms of toolchain configuration, component version selection, etc.
They also usually contain several patches that fix known issues with the different components on some architectures
Identical principle: shell scripts or Makefile that automatically fetch, extract, configure, compile and install the different components
