[Buildroot] Atmel AVR32 buildroot branch

[Robin Gilks]

Where do I raise issues with the Atmel AVR32 branch of buildroot? I 
can't find a relevant mailing list/forum...

If what I'm seeing is common to the main trunk perhaps someone could 
assist here...

u-boot builds all the tools with the cross compiler - not very useful 
where mkimage is concerned. I eventually sorted it out manually but the 
u-boot makefile assumes all sorts of things being set in the 
environment/passed to it that it was a major PITA - it also of course 
interrupts the flow so that the kernel build fails as it doesn't get 
built with a u-image wrapper.

There is an Atmel AVR32 Buildroot Mailing list listed here along with 
U-boot and Kernel mailing lists:
