I got a lot of FLAK because I refused to add patches for the AVR32 toolchain and instead introduced the possibility to download a prepatched toolset. If this is not done, then an additional 8 MB (after decompression) would have been added. Did not check, but I belive that a significant portion of those 2 MB, are the Linux patches for AT91 and AVR32. Once the target/linux/Makefile.in supports downloading these patches, then they can go away. I have also noticed that OpenSWAN adds a lot to the download size of Buildroot. There is a large patch which is inside the buildroot source, and this patch is available in several versions. The patch is downloadable from internet, so there is no need to > It would be way better to clean-up that mess and _not_ duplicate it over > all of target/device/Atmel.
