Re: [Buildroot] [PATCH 09/10] package/qt6/qt6tools: build only host linguist tools

[Thomas Petazzoni via buildroot <buildroot@buildroot.org>]

Hello Roy,

Thanks for the great patch series! I'm going through it, and I'm hoping
to merge it progressively in the next days. I have one question on this
patch though.

What does this mean?

Could you clarify why PATCH 09/10 and 10/10 are separate? It feels odd
to drop the target package, only to re-introduce it one commit after. I
was thinking of squashing both commits together. What do you think?

Thanks for your feedback!
