Jean-pierre Cartal 7d377e1f44 support/download: Fix tarball generation with symlinks pointing to ./something
When a --transform expression is provided, it is by default also applied
to the target of a symlink.

When we create tarballs (from git or svn checkouts), we use a --transform
expression to replace the leading ./ with the package name and version.

This causes issues when a package contains symlinks that points to
./something, as the leading './' is also replaced.

Fix that by using the 'S' transformation scope flag, as described in the
tar manual:
  https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_node/transform.html#transform

  In addition, several transformation scope flags are supported, that
  control to what files transformations apply. These are:

  ‘r’ Apply transformation to regular archive members.
  ‘R’ Do not apply transformation to regular archive members.
  ‘s’ Apply transformation to symbolic link targets.
  ‘S’ Do not apply transformation to symbolic link targets.
  ‘h’ Apply transformation to hard link targets.
  ‘H’ Do not apply transformation to hard link targets.

  Default is ‘rsh’ [...].

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.
