More and more packages are now depending on ln --relative, some require realpath, both of which only got introduced in "recent" versions of coreutils; older distros had a separate realpath, though, but that is not in the list of our required dependencies, and was not installed by default. So, we introduce a minimal host variant of coreutils to provide those programs. Signed-off-by: Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr> Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@bootlin.com>
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.
