The idea was to have a directory "local", which contains an empty Makefile.in and an empty Config.in By overwriting these files with something else you can add your own stuff, by just copying your real local directory to a new buildroot tree. This was not well received because it would allow people to build things not present in the mainstream, and it is good to make it hard for people to do things which is not supported by mainstream. Today buildroot supports storing and retrieving custom project configurations by "make saveconfig" and this will create the local directory if not present and if the BR2_LOCAL environment variable is not set. If it is set, then the local directory can located elsewhere. Maybe it is time to add this. > _______________________________________________ > buildroot mailing list > buildroot at uclibc.org > http://busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/buildroot -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIc4qtAyRRH5cXxqwRAr0vAJ42jpxj9lN/t8k64uKlC02N5rvOwQCgn00X /kCYLxgsJu+91S7MXcZ6MFE= =ydpb -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
