Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 2/3] package/neon: fix build with zlib
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2026 20:38:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260421183845.2456995-2-bernd@kuhls.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260421183845.2456995-1-bernd@kuhls.net>
Building this defconfig
BR2_x86_64=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
BR2_PACKAGE_NEON=y
BR2_PACKAGE_NEON_ZLIB=y
does not build libneon with zlib support, quoting configure log:
configure: zlib not enabled
although the configure parameter
--with-zlib=/home/bernd/buildroot/output/host/x86_64-buildroot-linux-gnu/sysroot
was used.
The reason is the addition of "=$(STAGING_DIR)" to --with-zlib which was
added to buildroot in 2008 with commit
cc6562ff839502a65a3b202ffe7fa3c67bae0856.
The upstream code, which expects only "yes", all other values lead to
the else-condition, is unchanged since 2004:
https://github.com/notroj/neon/blame/0.37.1/macros/neon.m4#L478
so a backport of this patch to LTS branches should be considered.
With this patch the configure log shows:
checking for zlib.h... yes
checking for inflate in -lz... yes
configure: zlib support enabled, using -lz
