The problem is that the Makefile doesn't know that kwbimage will need
plathome-openblocks-ax3-binary.0, it would have to parse the
kwbimage.cfg file to know about this.
Also, not all .kwb images will require this binary blob. Kirkwood and
Dove do not require such a binary blob, and a kwb image can be built
with just the kwbimage.cfg and barebox.bin. So it is really a
per-kwbimage.cfg knowledge.
Another solution is to add an option to kwbimage that allows it to list
which files are needed to make the build succeed. Then
arch/arm/Makefile can call this, check that we have the needed files.
If not, it shows a warning, otherwise it goes on with the build.
Other ideas welcome, of course.
Best regards,
Thomas
