Re: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/3] package/wlroots: bump to version 0.16.2

Hello,

+Waldemar as there is a uClibc-specific issue below. Also adding Paul
Cercueil who originally wrote the patch.

I have applied to master. However, the patch
package/wlroots/0001-Add-feature-macros-to-more-C-files-.patch is a bit
annoying because it has been rejected upstream.

The patch currently points to
https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/pull/2493 which in fact has been
migrated to
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/merge_requests/2493.
And this concludes with "Closing because we don't want these
workarounds upstream.".

So I think we should either find a better solution to this issue, or
drop the patch and make wlroots unavailable with uClibc.

Best regards,

Thomas
