[Buildroot] Patching python to 2.7 (Thomas Petazzoni)

[Buildroot] Patching python to 2.7 (Thomas Petazzoni)

[Barry Bridges]

Thanks for the reply Thomas,

It must be me doing something wrong. I've seen Maxime Ripards patches but
for some reason can't get them to work.

What version of BR would you recommend for the patches and is it just a
matter of adding the patches into the package/python directory?

 

 

Thanks

Yes, Maxime Ripard has sent patches to the list that do this. I have
merged them in one of my branch, but I'm also taking that opportunity
to migrate Python to the package infrastructure, which is taking longer
than expected.

If you want, I can set up a git branch with just Maxime's patches which
are working.

Regards,

Thomas

I think 2010.11 should work, and the latest Git as well.

No. You have to apply Maxime's patches to Buildroot. Maxime's patches
are not against Python itself, but against Buildroot.

Thomas
