Yes, sure, we need to fix the problem. It's just not as simple as
adding more "depends on", unfortunately :-(

Ah, you're planning on coming to the Buildroot meeting? If so, could
you register to http://elinux.org/Buildroot:DeveloperDaysELCE2014, or
confirm me that you are coming so that I can add your name to the list
of participants?

Thanks!

Thomas
