Kennington III Thanks for this contribution! However, we don't really like to have "orphan" host packages, i.e host packages that are not a dependency of anything else in Buildroot. Do you intend to submit a Buildroot package for nanopb? Even if it's a host package, it would probably be OK to have it in package/Config.in.host so that it appears in menuconfig.
