Hello,

Adding Buildroot mailing list in Cc. You probably intended to do that,
since you wrote to me in english and not french :)

Yes. Someone needs to submit the patch fixing that :)

I was going to propose to remove DirectFB, since the last commit on
Github dates back from February 2014, and the website
(directfb.org) which has been dead since at least 2015 is now
cyber-squatted. However, it seems like a new website is up at
directfb.net, which a news from November 2016. And it seems like the
Github repo at https://github.com/deniskropp/DirectFB/commits/master
contains some newer updates. Not sure why the upstream maintainer
doesn't use https://github.com/DirectFB/directfb.

But still, I wouldn't call that a really active upstream...

Best regards,

Thomas
