Dear Romain Naour,

The script has been renamed to
output/build/syslinux-6.03/efi/check-gnu-efi.sh. And its contents seems
to hint that syslinux can use an external gnu-efi installation, which
would be the preferred solution in Buildroot. Can you investigate this?
Of course, if there is no upstream supported way of using an external
gnu-efi installation, then leave things as is in your current patch.

Also, if the gnu-efi dependency really needs to be removed, you also
need to remove the "select" in syslinux Config.in file.

Thanks!

Thomas
