Previously, it was possible for external toolchains to be used that had support for languages or libraries that Buildroot was not aware of. If Buildroot is not made aware of this support, it will not know to copy the requisite libraries into the filesystem. This is problematic as packages may perform their own checks [0] to find out what the toolchain supports and builds will link against libraries from the toolchain but will be missing dependencies in the filesystem. Now, the support helpers alert the user when a toolchain supports a language or library that has not been set in the Buildroot configuration. Also, while we're here, add `-ffree-form` to the Fortran check to suppress a meaningless warning.

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 OFTC IRC.
