core/br2-external: properly report unexpected errors

2017-03-31T07:09:46+00:00

Unextected error in the br2-external script are properly caught, but they are not reported properly, and we end up in either of two situations: - the .br2-external.mk file is not generated, in which case make will try to find a rule to generate it (because the 'include' directive tries to generate missing files); - the .br-external.mk file is generated but does not contain the error variable, and thus the build might not get interrupted. We fix that by using a trap on the pseudo ERR signal, to emit the error variable on unexpected errors. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

download/git: create GNU format tar files

2017-03-31T06:43:35+00:00

On most distros, the tar format defaults to GNU. However, at build time the default format may be changed to posix. Also, future versions of tar will default to posix. Since we want the tarballs created by the git download method to be reproducible (so their hash can be checked), we should explicitly specify the format. Since existing tarballs on sources.buildroot.org use the GNU format, and also the existing hashes in the *.hash files are based on GNU format tarballs, we use the GNU format. In addition, the Posix format encodes atime and ctime as well as mtime, but tar offers no option like --mtime to override them. In the GNU format, atime and ctime are only encoded if the --incremental option is given.

graph-depends: rename pkgutil.py to brpkgutil.py

2017-03-30T22:43:18+00:00

pkgutil.py is also part of Python itself. Placing pkgutil.py as is in a folder with other scripts that require original pkgutil will break them. This is the case with scanpypi. So rename pkgutil.py to brpkgutil.py to avoid naming collision.

support/mkusers: rename variable to avoid name clashing

2017-03-07T12:18:49+00:00

The LINES variable is automatically set by bash to represent the number of lines in the terminal. That variable can be set when the shell receives SIGWINCH. If the shell does receive SIGWINCH after our LINES array is filled, the content of the array is mangled. Rename the variable to avoid that. Fixes #9456 Reported-by: George Y.

dependencies/cmake: blacklist cmake 3.7

2017-02-28T08:40:27+00:00

cmake-3.7 has a bug in how it handles rpath, linking with libraries from the host. Until we completely understand the issue, just blacklist cmake-3.7.

package: add generic support for lz archives

package: refactor listing of extractor dependencies

2017-02-15T21:11:11+00:00

Don't special case $(XZCAT) when constructing DL_TOOLS_DEPENDENCIES. The next commit will introduce another extractor that automatically builds when not installed. Introduce EXTRACTOR_DEPENDENCY_PRECHECKED_EXTENSIONS that lists archive extensions for which the extractor is already checked in support/dependencies/check-host-foo.mk. Use this in the newly introduced extractor-dependency to populate DL_TOOLS_DEPENDENCIES.
