ncurses: enable shared library build on the host

2013-03-24T12:47:20+00:00

On the host, we generally build and install a shared library rather than a static version of libraries. In this specific case, we will want to build host-gettext, which builds a shared library that depends on ncurses. And this doesn't work well if ncurses is static because it hasn't been built with -fPIC. Therefore, let's build ncurses as shared on the host.

ncurses: speed up host build

2013-03-04T20:19:05+00:00

Disable C++ and Ada bindings in host-ncurses, since those are not needed. Save 9 seconds of build time on my laptop. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

ncurses: speed up the build by not installing manpages

2013-03-04T20:18:50+00:00

The installation of manpages during the installation step of host-ncurses and ncurses is horribly slow, and useless. This commit therefore disables the installation of those manpages, using the --without-manpages configuration option. It brings the combined host-ncurses+ncurses configure/build/install time from 3 minutes and 18 seconds to 1 minute and 36 seconds. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

package: use _CONFIG_SCRIPTS wherever possible

2013-02-08T21:34:26+00:00

Use the _CONFIG_SCRIPTS mechanism in all packages for which it does all what the package was doing. A few packages, like libxslt, are for now left out, since they need some additional fixup (for example a fixup of includedir).

packages: remove the last remaining copyright notices

2013-01-20T19:51:17+00:00

There is no real reason to keep copyright notices in just four packages, while none of the other packages have such copyright notices. The license is already clearly announced by the COPYING file in the top Buildroot source directory. The authors are clearly credited through the Git history of the project.

ncurses: bump to 5.9

2012-07-30T17:10:48+00:00

Bumping to 5.9 has two nice side-effects: * It builds fine on noMMU architectures such as Blackfin, which will fix build failures like http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/cf3e6a95c82b60d63da041293db576a8f21f9136/build-end.log. * It installs a pkg-config file, which will allow gpsd to find ncurses properly, without the need to use ncurses5-config, which means we can get rid of one of our gpsd patches. Thanks to Mike Frysinger for pointing the new --enable-pc-files option. After this bump, I build tested a large number of the ncurses reverse dependencies we have in Buildroot, and they all built fine. Thanks to Gustavo Zacarias for the investigation on why ncurses 5.9 why segfaulting: it turned out to be caused by the --enable-broken-linker configure option. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

ncurses: get the post staging installation hook called properly

2012-07-26T17:52:09+00:00

There was a typo in the name of the variable to register the hook, which prevent the hook from actually being called. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

all packages: rename XXXTARGETS to xxx-package

Also remove the redundant $(call ...).
