[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] aufs-utils: initial release

[Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>]

Steffen,

I believe this package depends on aufs, so this patch should be the
second patch in the patch series, not the first one.

Your package/aufs-utils/Config.in file should have a "select
BR2_PACKAGE_AUFS", and therefore also a "depends on BR2_LINUX_KERNEL".

Why not using:

	$(call qstrip,$(BR2_PACKAGE_AUFS_VERSION))

here, so that both aufs and aufs-utils have the same version.

Ah, you see, it's really aufs-utils that depends on aufs.

Any reason to have two $(MAKE) calls with specific targets here,
instead of just using the main Makefile of the project?

Also, instead of passing CPPFLAGS, CC and LD, you should use
$(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS), i.e something like:

	$(MAKE) -C $(@D) $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS) KDIR=$(LINUX_DIR)

Why not using "make install" here?

Thanks!
