[Buildroot] Autodetect architechture

[Mikael Sundberg]

Hi everyone, I?m new on this list and have a problem.

When I try to build with "fontconfig" enabled I get a configuration 
error saying:
 - "Cannot autodetect architecture while crosscompiling", bails out and 
tells me to use the "--with-arch" option.
In "package/fontconfig/fontconfig.mk" there a 
"--with-arch=$(GNU_TARGET_NAME)" in the FONTCONFIG_CONF_OPT but it 
doesn?t seem to be added when the configure script runs.

Any ideas? Need more info?

I have been able to build buildroot in the past without this problem but 
then I got a HDD-crash and the working environment was lost.

regards,
Mikael Sundberg

Oh, I must have missed that question, I must have used the wrong 
keywords when searching \=
Anyway, thanks for the reply! I?ll go ahead and revert to rev. 23038 and 
try again.
