The external.mk file in a br2-external usually contains raw makefile targets. This file is common code and not a package recipe so it should not be tested against the code-style of a package .mk file. When using this script to check files in a br2-external tree, usually the user is responsible for not passing files that check-package do not understand. But external.mk is special because it is part of the br2-external structure, so it is likely someone expects it to be checkable by an in-tree script. Instead of adding another blob to the manual, just ignore this file. Only do that when a br2-external is being tested (so with option -b passed to the script) and also check that it is on the root path of the br2-external to allow someone to have a package called external.

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.
