Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] package: deprecate some more development tools
Date: Fri, 27 Dec 2013 14:14:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131227131409.GA4122@free.fr> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1388145020-2082-1-git-send-email-thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>

Thomas, All,

On 2013-12-27 12:50 +0100, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> Since some time, we have removed the support to build a toolchain for
> the target, and therefore the support for several development tools on
> the target.
> 
> This commit deprecates a few additional development tools: m4, bison,
> flex and gob2. For flex, we retain the ability to build libfl, we only
> deprecated the ability to build the flex binary itself.
> 
> The original motivation for this patch is that m4 is causing build
> issues in some configurations, but there isn't really much incentive
> to fix this package for the target, since it is not really useful for
> embedded Linux systems.
> 
> Bison, Flex and Gob2 are deprecated because they are reverse
> dependencies of m4.
> 
> Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
