[Buildroot] [PATCH v2] Makefile: introduce check-package target

[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Thomas, All,

On 2018-08-11 12:44 +0200, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> The snippet of code that runs a check-package on all
> .mk/.hash/Config.in files is currently only available within
> .gitlab-ci.yml, and isn't immediately and easily usable by Buildroot
> users. In order to simplify this, this commit introduces a top-level
> "check-package" make target that implements the same logic. The
> .gitlab-ci.yml file is changed to use "make check-package".
> 
> Since this target is oriented towards Buildroot developers, we
> intentionally do not clutter the already noisy "make help" text with
> this additional make target.

I was thinking that, maybe, we would also like to later extend this to
also scan the br2-external trees.

Unfortunately, the layout of a br2-external tree is totally free, i.e.
we do not enforce the package/ boot/ and so on segregation. And since a
br2-external may also contain arbitrary files, we can't just blindly
scan it entirely either.

So, people who want to check their packages in a br2-external tree will
have to do it on their own...

Yann E. MORIN.
