Currently, host-xz and host-lzip are built as soon as the corresponding tools are not provided by the system, independently of whether they are really needed by the Buildroot configuration. This is particularly annoying for host-lzip, which is only needed for very few packages. This commit modifies the generic package infrastructure to only add host-lzip and host-xz as dependencies when really needed. Signed-off-by: Norbert Lange <nolange79@gmail.com> [Thomas: - improve commit log - as suggested by Yann E. Morin, make the lzip case similar to the xz case] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com>
Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
