Currently, the formatting we impose on the _LICENSE variable requires that we also use the rarely used := assignment operator, which makes the _LICENSE variable the only variable that users have to write with this operator. This really departs from the simplicity and consistency of using the append-assignment, which we use for every other variable. This is because the append-assignment operator surreptiously introduces a space between the original value and the appended one. But we can use this knowledge, to match any instance of a space followed by a comma, and turn it into a single comma. This allows users to now have a consistent use of the '=' and '+=' operators we use everywhere else in .mk files. Signed-off-by: Yann E.

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. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
