Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH] trivial: fix typo 'informations'
Date: Thu, 24 Jul 2014 20:07:02 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <37734712403055c8a791.1406225222@localhost> (raw)

In English, unlike in French, almost all usages of the word 'information'
are uncountable, meaning that 'informations' is invalid.
This patch fixes this typo throughout the tree, except in CHANGES and
docs/news.html (historic text).

Signed-off-by: Thomas De Schampheleire <thomas.de.schampheleire@gmail.com>
