Sagaert, All,
On 2013-01-13 19:39 +0100, Sagaert Johan spake thusly:
> Only show hostname and issue options when the default skeleton is selected.
> Moved the menu sections so that when a custom skeleton is selected the

After fiddling with the idea, I believe we should not do it that way.
It can well happen that a custom skeleton does not already have an
hostname or issue file, and we may want to create either or both in this
case.
So I think we should do it differently:
config BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_HOSTNAME
string "System hostname"
default "buildroot" if BR2_ROOTFS_SKELETON_DEFAULT
default "" if ! BR2_ROOTFS_SKELETON_DEFAULT
help
Select system hostname to be stored in /etc/hostname.
Leave empty to not create /etc/hostname, or to keep the
one from a custom skeleton.
And system/system.mk already ensures we do not create /etc/hostname if
BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_HOSTNAME is empty.
That way, the default is correct in both cases, and it is still possible
to create/override hostname and issue for a custom skeleton.
(Ditto for /etc/issue).
Thoughts?
Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
