Commit 62d5558f76 (utils/get-developers: make it callable from elsewhere
than the toplevel directory) tried to fix this by passing in the toplevel
directory when the DEVELOPERS file is parsed.
Unfortunately this is not enough, as E.G. also the paths listed in the
patches are relative to the toplevel directory, causing it to not match the
entries in the DEVELOPERS file.
In concept this can be fixed by also passing the toplevel directory to the
Developers class, but the simplest solution is just to chdir to the toplevel
Buildroot directory before calling any of the getdeveloperlib functions.
This does require us to finish parsing command line arguments (which opens
the provided patch files) to not get into trouble with relative paths to
patches before chdir'ing / initializing getdeveloperlib.

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.
