[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Peter, All,

I've added Gustavo in Cc: for his hindsights on Waf.

On 2014-02-25 22:24 +0100, Peter Seiderer spake thusly:

This dependency is inherited from imx-lib, so we usually state so like
this:
        depends on BR2_LINUX_KERNEL # imx-lib

Yes, in case someone wonders, it is indeed the Library GPL, not the
Lesser GPL, so it is indeed LGPLv2+.

You forgot to add a 'depends on BR2_PACKAGE_LIBFSLVPUWRAP' in the
Config.in.

Waf is known to have lotta isue when cross-compiling. Is that really
working correctly?

Fortunately, this is only supposed to ever be run for an ARM target, so
maybe they were not really concerned of making it really cross-compile
friendly, as long as it works in these specific comditions.

Yann E. MORIN.
