I am not sure about this one. Why would we pass in the environment
specifically LINUX_DIR, and not the <pkg>_DIR of the other ~2000
packages we have in Buildroot ?
What about instead using BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_VMLINUX_BIN, to get
vmlinux.bin copied to output/images, and then compress it in the
post-build script ?
Or alternatively, if there is a vmlinux.bin.gz target, add support for
it in our linux package?
Best regards,
Thomas
