Python3 at runtime identifies the uuid backend to use to implement safe time-based UUID generation functions. When the python _uuid extension module, /usr/lib/python3.7/lib-dynload/_uuid.cpython-37m-<arch>.so is not found, the fall back is to use a pure python implementation. - If uuid.h from util-linux is available at build time, the _uuid module is built and used. A Buildroot patch allows us to disable this build-time check and never build the _uuid module. With the bump to python 3.7, an optional dependency on util-linux was added to build the _uuid module. However, this may lead to circular dependencies. To break this circular dependency, we can disable the build of the _uuid module and always use the pure python implementation.

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.
