Good Morning
I was wondering what is the easiest way to not use platform.keys.rewrite.txt ??
I would like to keep using all the old path.
Thankz

Ok, been doing a lot of reading/research think I found in the revisions.txt a hint on how to do this,
"* platform.txt rewriting can be disabled if target platform has a "rewriting=disabled" key/value pair set"
But still at a lost how to implement this in the Linux32 platform.
If someone could Pleaze give me a little more info on how/where to implement this, it would be most appreciated.
Thankz

platform rewrites is triggered for custom cores only. what do mean when you say you want to implement this in the linux32 platform?
I am trying to get 1.6.3 to run on a raspberry Pi,
I have up to 1.6.2 running no problems using the system compilers.
With the addition of the platform.keys.rewrite.txt stuff in 1.6.3 I can not seem to get it.
I have tried hard coding then with

But that only seems to work for arm-none-eabi-gcc compiler.
I have tried adding the "rewriting=disabled" here and there also with no luck.
I see it is in the use for it is debug, does that mean i need to start arduino in a debug mode for it to work ??
Sorry, kinda confused right now after a long weekend of playing if that makes no sense.

FYI: here is how I get 1.6.2 to run on the pi which has worked since 1.5.6 by just updating a few patches.

ShorTie please add some context to your experimentations with some verbose output. I've coded platform rewrite and I can tell you that if you change compiler.path to "/usr/bin/" it won't get rewritten. Rewriting occurs only when both key and old value are found in keys.rewrite file.
Ok, Me Sorry 
Seems that my main problem was a corrupt file system on my sdcard.
The above patch does seem to work fine like you said it should.
With almost 4000 views of my thread over at raspberrypi.org,
I would like to give you folks a Big Thankz for all the hard work and effort you put into such a Great Program from all of us ..
