Could you perhaps bring a bit > more context? Yes, I was referring to the change initiated by the patch. Alexander originally sent two patches [1/2] boot/syslinux: Bump to 6.04-pre2 [1] [2/2] boot/syslinux: Don't delete host syslinux installer [2] 2/2 used a pattern already used in other patches (0004, 0005, 0011) to build the syslinux binary. This was flagged because it should have been up-streamed. Since this is not possible (project discontinued, implementation is a buildroot-specific workaround), Alexander chose to discontinue it for now. host/bin/syslinux needs to be executed to make a partition bootable. If Buildroot does not supply the binary, the corresponding host package has to be installed.
