When building with a pep517 frontend we need to use the specified build backend as opposed to the fallback setuptools build which only works when not building with a pep517 frontend. This package currently builds using setuptools as we do not yet use setuptools with a pep517 build frontend. The package contains a setuptools fallback which only can be used when using setuptools without a pep517 frontend as the pep517 frontend will only use the build backend specified in the package pyproject.toml which is an internal backend and not setuptools. The custom in tree backend depends on setuptools and expandvars, additionally it depends on cython 3 unless disabled. As we do not currently support cython 3, let's use the pure python build instead.

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 OFTC IRC.
