* documentation: update about new package infrastructuresThomas Petazzoni2009-12-151-89/+603
| | | | | | | | | | | | Document the new generic package infrastructure, and how target/host packages are handled, both for the generic package infrastructure and the autotools package infrastructure. This documentation replaces the documentation that used to be present at the top of Makefile.autotools.in. Both tutorial and reference documentation are provided.

* docs/buildroot.html: document linux26-menuconfig / LINUX26_KCONFIGPeter Korsgaard2009-11-221-0/+16

* documentation: insist more on why output/target/ should not be usedThomas Petazzoni2009-10-301-7/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | A lot of people complain that the root filesystem generated by Buildroot doesn't work because it lacks the device files. This is because they use output/target/ instead of one of the images. Therefore, insist in the documentation on this point. Even though I'm unsure if users really read the documentation :-) Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
* docs/buildroot.html: remove mention of skel.tar.gzPeter Korsgaard2009-10-181-6/+1
| | | | | | | We haven't used a tarball for the skeleton since we moved to subversion in 2006. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
* busybox: invert hide optionPeter Korsgaard2009-10-151-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Invert the BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX_HIDE_OTHERS option to use positive logic, renaming it to _SHOW_OTHERS. Positive logic is simpler to understand, and it makes all{,package}config do the right thing. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
* buildroot; move defconfigs to configs/ and print in helpPeter Korsgaard2009-10-041-16/+9
| | | | | | | | | | As discussed earlier on the mailing list. It simplifies code, gives more sensible error message on typos and makes the defconfigs easier to find for users. Furthermore, update documentation to match. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>

* Documentation cleanupsThomas Petazzoni2009-04-281-41/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | * Add the section describing the project feature to the table of contents * Change the formatting of titles in the section on the project feature * Mention that the section on project feature is obsolete since the feature has now been implemented * Remove the duplication about two different sections documenting basically the same thing : how to use the Buildroot toolchain.

* docs/buildroot.html: remove reference to unused BUILDROOT_USE_XWINDOWSPeter Korsgaard2009-03-231-1/+0
|
* pkgconfig: add pkgconfig package for targetPeter Korsgaard2009-03-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The host versions shouldn't be visible in Kconfig, so remove the reference to BR2_PACKAGE_PKGCONFIG everywhere and prefix the host targets with host-. At the same time add pkgconfig for the target (E.G. for development) and let BR2_PACKAGE_PKGCONFIG control that package. Notice: all defconfigs in the tree have been updated, but make sure to disable the pkgconfig package (unless you want it) if you use an external config, otherwise you'll end up with pkgconfig and glib2 in the target.

* Create a common BR2_COPYTO to prepare to replaceUlf Samuelsson2009-01-261-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | all the different COPYTOs spread out all over Buildroot. Generate COPY_FILE subroutine which can be used to copy a file. $(COPY_FILE , file, directory, filename) This will copy to binary dir and to the selected copy dir if set in new config (intended to replace all old COPYTO configs) This is overridden by BUILDROOT_COPYTO, if set into the environment.

* buildroot: add BR2_BACKUP_SITE and DOWNLOAD helperPeter Korsgaard2009-01-161-1/+1
| | | | | | | | This is the long requested backup mirror support. So far only enabled for Makefile.autotools.in, but there's no reason why we cannot use DOWNLOAD everywhere. Notice, I'm still syncing http://buildroot.uclibc.org/downloads/sources/
