When we change the way we vendor packages, either because our download backend or helpers evolve, or when the vendoring tools themselves change, we must avoid generating new archives with the same name, or there would be confusion when using older archives with newer Buildroot versions, or the other way around (and that would mess with local caches, like the one we share on s.b.o). This is going to be the case for example, when we enforce a better and more reproducible set of modes on archived files in the following commits. Introduce a version suffix for post-processed downloads, that we can bump when needed. Signed-off-by: Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle <arnout@mind.be>
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.
