perl-db-file: remove this package

2016-12-27T17:00:50+00:00

The module DB_File (Berkeley DB wrapper) is a Perl core module. Long time ago, its build as a core module was broken. Since perl-cross-1.0.2, this issue is fixed. So, this package which build DB_File as CPAN module, becomes useless. Signed-off-by: Francois Perrad Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

linux-headers: kill 3.14.x and 4.{5, 6, 7}.x series

2016-12-20T18:32:00+00:00

These aren't supported upstream any more so remove the options and add them to legacy. Also switch the older deprecations that used 3.14.x to 3.12.x Signed-off-by: Gustavo Zacarias Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

uboot: fix custom patch dir legacy handling

2016-12-20T08:33:48+00:00

Commit 3e3fef39e71ed0426130b36aa00e4630ebb537ae added new and improved patch handling, with BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_PATCH. This was in addition to the existing BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_CUSTOM_PATCH_DIR option, that only handled directories. Later, commit 21b25d28fc7af3bb1b2c55e4a46e0d067ebc0081 moved the old BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_CUSTOM_PATCH_DIR to legacy options. But on the way, bad things happened: * The original option was a string, while the one added to Config.in.legacy is a bool. This results in a warning from defconfigs that actually define the old BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_CUSTOM_PATCH_DIR (because a string is not a valid value for a bool), but it does not result in the legacy option being selected. Consequently, BR2_LEGACY is not selected either. * The advice at the top of Config.in.legacy to add a hidden WRAP option to select BR2_LEGACY was not heeded. * The advice at the top of Config.in.legacy to use the old string option as the default for the new string option was not heeded. In this case, the variable was not just renamed, as the old option supported directories only, while the new one supports files too. But since the old option is a subset of the new option, it can still be used to set a useful default. So, this mod turns the legacy option back to a string, adds a hidden bool WRAP option to set BR2_LEGACY when the string is non emoty, and uses the legacy option to set the default for the new option.

legacy/sqlite: add "sqlite" to legacy option name

2016-12-20T08:33:03+00:00

The "command-line editing support was updated" does not indicate the package name, unlike the other legacy options. This commit adds "sqlite", to be nicer. Signed-off-by: Danomi Manchego Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

toolchain-external: remove musl-cross prebuilt toolchain

2016-12-17T13:21:00+00:00

The upstream link to download musl-cross prebuilt toolchain is dead [1] and there no new download location. Also the last prebuilt toolchain use musl 1.1.12 version which is not uptodate (currently 1.1.15). Remove this support and recommend to use Buildroot toolchain instead.

Config.in.legacy: findfs is available in BR2_PACKAGE_UTIL_LINUX_BINARIES

2016-12-11T14:41:51+00:00

uclibc: update to 1.0.20

2016-12-04T14:35:04+00:00

The test suite is removed from the package and is already a separate package in buildroot. All patches are upstream, so remove them. The UCLIBC_HAS_LFS option is removed upstream.

toolchain: kill ADI Blackfin toolchain

2016-11-25T22:00:01+00:00

This toolchain has many problems which are fixed in contemporary gcc and uClibc-ng. In addition, several hacks are needed to be able to work with this toolchain. All these hacks are removed as well. Also the package exceptions for this toolchain are removed. The BR2_BFIN_INSTALL_FDPIC_SHARED and BR2_BFIN_INSTALL_FLAT_SHARED options don't get a legacy entry. For the ADI toolchain, there already is a legacy entry, so it doesn't make sense to add it twice. For other external toolchains, these options didn't actually work, because they rely on the specific layout of the ADI toolchain.

makedevs: remove target package

2016-11-23T22:12:06+00:00

The makedevs package is a fork of the makedevs tool from busybox. It is part of the Buildroot infrastructure, not something that should be used on the target. It something like this is needed on the target, upstream busybox should be used. And if one of the Buildroot-specific features is needed, then that feature should be upstreamed to busybox. Besides, there were already two things wrong with the target package: - it didn't take into account the overlap with busybox (no depends on BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX_SHOW_OTHERS, no dependency on busybox); - it didn't take into account the libcap feature. The target package was introduced more or less accidentally in 81cd9d45 where the intention was to make it more similar to other packages. So, kill it with fire.
