[Buildroot] Buildroot, busysbox and microcom

[Tim Barr]

Something I noticed is that in the list of applications you can select
for busybox from the buildroot config does not include the microcom
terminal emulator app. What is the proper process to get this included?
Do I just do a 'make configured' and just edit the busybox .config file,
and then make? Or do I need to do something with saveconfig and
getconfig? Or are those commands just used to save and get custom
.config files in the project directory?

You need to disable BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX_HIDE_OTHERS to allowyou to configure Microcomif BR2_NETWORK_SUPPORT
comment "Networking applications"
...if !BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX_HIDE_OTHERS || !BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX_SNAPSHOT
source "package/microcom/Config.in"
endif...Best RegardsUlf Samuelsson

I thought Tim wanted to enable Busybox's microcom. In that case, run
"make busybox-menuconfig", and maybe "make busybox-update" afterwards to
save the configuration to local/xzy/..
