package/elfutils: fix dependency on C library

2015-08-09T09:22:08+00:00

As Thomas puts it: The comment can only be visible when a toolchain that is *not* uclibc and *not* glibc is used. I.e, the comment is now only visible when musl is used. Which is not what we want. Indeed, I completely borked the conditions. When a glibc or uClibc toolchain is selected, the comment is entirely hidden, and we don;t get the extra requirements (wchar, !static). Fix that with the solution proposed by Thomas. Reported-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

package/elfutils: does not build with musl

2015-08-08T08:56:11+00:00

elfutils uses so many GNUisms in so many places that patching them out is a tedious task which would make us diverge so much from upstream that it would become a nightmare to bump elfutils in the future. Furthermore, elfutils needs argp, which is missing in musl, so it would need argp-standalone too (as when using a uClibc toolchain). Make elfutils depend on either glibc or uClibc. argp-standalone is already required when using a uClibc toolchain, but since we do not support musl, no need to add that to the condition. Fixes (configure failures due to missing argp): http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/743/7432ccd0d060a70bc35f0ac21ec92ae0071592ae/ http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/cc9/cc90bd9312f30f91daa50af4253629f58b82c486/ http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/d5e/d5e583c695afbc2e686e3002765ce9e1937aa0d5/ [...] Fixes (build failures due to GNUisms): http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/ee7/ee7eaf80247dd96548d66be9884b179e20204a98/ http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/3f2/3f242853e600bb6bec6ce2f0598d304751ceb81a/ http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/7f0/7f0c7c9cb746104f93907544247bc1008d6ad0dc/ [...] Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

Rename BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS

2014-12-11T21:48:13+00:00

Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB should really build everything with static libraries. As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly. This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select shared, shared+static or just static. Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

elfutils: disable for static builds

2014-11-07T07:55:34+00:00

Even when doing static builds, a shared library is built. This causes a build failure under some circumstances, for instance when building for MIPS + uClibc + static. After asking upstream if it would be possible to add a configure option to not build the shared library, the answer was that doing a static build is not a good idea. Here is a small snippet of the conversation: "Note that fully static builds are problematic. elfutils uses dlopen to open the EBL backends (the CPU-specific support snippets), so even if you link statically, the final binaries are still considerably dynamic."

elfutils: propagate architecture dependency to comment

2014-05-17T09:35:23+00:00

elfutils depends on !BR2_avr32, but this dependency was not properly propagated to the comment about toolchain options. This commit fixes that. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard
