[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Markus, All,

On 2018-12-19 13:04 -0800, Markus Mayer spake thusly:
> The configuration option BR2_SYSTEM_DEFAULT_PATH allows the user to
> override the default path, which can be used by /etc/profile and some
> system daemons.
> 
> It defaults to the value previously hard-coded in /etc/profile. This
> default should be suitable for most users.

Slight formatting issue here, check-package conplains:

    system/Config.in:393: help text: <tab><2 spaces><62 chars> (http://nightly.buildroot.org/#writing-rules-config-in)

Otherwise (no need to respin, that can be fixed when applying I hope):
