Thomas Petazzoni ee656a4486 package/vim: fix reinstallation with a patch
In commit 67e84345c1 ("package/vim: fix
reinstallation"), we fixed the reinstallation of vim for the target
package by removing symlinks before calling "make installlinks".

However, this didn't fix the same problem for the host-vim package.

So instead, this commit adds a patch, accepted upstream, that uses "ln
-sf" instead of "ln -s" to create the symlinks, allowing them to be
overwriten on reinstallation.

Fixes:

ln: failed to create symbolic link 'view': File exists

on reinstallation of host-vim.

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.
