Remove BR2_DEPRECATED

2016-10-15T21:14:45+00:00

The BR2_DEPRECATED logic is a lot less useful than the legacy handling, because the symbols just disappears without warning to the user. For example, we had a few defconfigs that were using deprecated symbols (which were not actually used because BR2_DEPRECATED wasn't set) so these didn't build the expected code anymore. Also, the idea behind BR2_DEPRECATED is that you can easily revive it again if there is interest. However, it is relatively easy to revert the removal of a package as well. The deprecation is also more effort because it has to be removed twice: once when deprecating, and once when really removing. It doesn't make sense to add a legacy entry for BR2_DEPRECATED. Users who actually used it will get legacy warnings instead. Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

Makefile.legacy: fix recursive invocation with BUILDROOT_DL_DIR and _CONFIG

2014-02-11T07:14:57+00:00

The legacy support for the old BUILDROOT_DL_DIR and BUILDROOT_CONFIG breaks down when make is invoked recursively - which is done in a few cases, e.g. silentoldconfig, external-defs, ... These targets always give a legacy error. For BUILDROOT_DL_DIR, this is fixed by making sure that the original value of BR2_DL_DIR taken from the environment is also exported again. For BUILDROOT_CONFIG, this is fixed with an additional comparison of the environment variable's value with the fake value that we introduce ourselves.

infra: replace BUILDROOT_CONFIG with BR2_CONFIG

2014-02-09T16:00:13+00:00

To make the naming consistent (all user-visible options should be prefixed with BR2_). An entry is added to Makefile.legacy to warn users who have set BUILDROOT_CONFIG but not BR2_CONFIG. Still export BUILDROOT_CONFIG but pointing to some phony value, to make sure that scripts that still use it fail in a predictable way.

pkg-infra: introduce errors for legacy API

2012-11-30T20:06:40+00:00

As discussed in the BR developer days, we want to be more strict about API changes in buildroot. I.e., we want to make it less likely that a user's customizations break down after upgrading buildroot. A first step is to make sure that the user is warned about API changes. This patch introduces Makefile.legacy and Config.in.legacy, which will issue clear error messages for such situations.
