Fabrice, All,

On 2022-01-08 17:46 +0100, Fabrice Fontaine spake thusly:

This breaks out-of-tree builds:

    $ mkdir /tmp/foo
    $ cd /tmp/foo
    $ make -C /path/to/buildroot O=$(pwd) defconfig
    [...]
    ***
    *** Can't find default configuration ".defconfig"!
    ***
    make[1]: *** [Makefile:1024: defconfig] Error 1
    make: *** [Makefile:23: _all] Error 2

So, rejected (although  I do agree that this should work...)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
