MORIN" > Cc: Arnout Vandecappelle > Cc: Thomas Petazzoni I am a bit confused. In this series, you suggest to make host-flex/host-bison dependencies of the configuration step of Linux. But in another series (http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/list/?series=59260), you suggest to make flex/bison hard requirements of Buildroot, so that we don't have to build them. Could you clarify in which direction you would like to go ? Also, if we make bison/flex hard requirements of Buildroot, I'd like to have a clear rule on whether we keep or not our host-bison/host-flex packages, and if we keep them, when they should be used vs. when the system bison/flex should be used.
