[Buildroot] Adding a ModemManager package

[Shawn J. Goff]

I'm trying to add a ModemManager package. While building, I'm getting 
this error during the installation step: "/usr/lib/libgcc_s.so: file not 
recognized: File format not recognized". This looks like it's looking at 
my host's libgcc_s.so instead of the target's version. If that's the 
case I'm not sure why or how to fix it. I did have to use autogen.sh to 
create the configure script and lots of other stuff; I did this on my 
host system, so I'm not sure if that is affecting it.

Below is a larger part of the output for context.

Could you post the in-progress patch you have to add the modem-manager
package? This would allow us to check for potential suspicious things
in the .mk file, and if nothing suspicious shows up, to try and
reproduce the issue.

Thanks!

Sure, here's a patch. udev was disabling gudev; for now, I had to remove 
that part because the default configuration of ModemManager seems to 
require it. I don't have a patch for the autogen-created files yet. I 
run make, then go to the build directory and run "NOCONFIGURE=yes 
./autogen.sh", then go back and continue running make.

If you read the udev.mk, you see that gudev is disabled unless
BR2_PACKAGE_UDEV_ALL_EXTRAS is enabled. And your package selects it, so
it should "just" work.

Use MODEM_MANAGER_AUTORECONF = YES instead.

I don't have the time to try and reproduce the problem right now, but
hopefully someone else will have a look.

Best regards,

  Hi Shawn,

  I haven't been able to reproduce your issue because your patch didn't 
include the libqmi package. However, it is very well possible that the 
issue is caused by running 'autogen.sh'. Is it possible that the libtool 
patch doesn't get applied? I see that libtool adds "-rpath /usr/lib" to 
the link command, and I believe the libtool patch removes exactly that.

  To create configure properly, you need to set _AUTORECONF to YES, as 
mentioned by Thomas. Unfortunately, that is not so easy...

- modem-manager uses gettext macros provided by the gettext package, so 
you need to add host-gettext to the dependencies. But host-gettext 
doesn't exist yet - I'll send a patch to add it.

- modem-manager requires gtkdocize to be run. We certainly don't want to 
add gtkdocize to buildroot. But since it just generates two files for a 
total of 350 lines, it's easy to add that with a package patch.

  Hopefully this will help you to solve the problem.

  Regards,
  Arnout

[Buildroot] [PATCH] gettext: add host-gettext

[Arnout Vandecappelle]

From: "Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind)" <arnout@mind.be>

host-gettext is required for the autotools macros used by modem-manager.

I noticed that gettext uses ncurses if available, but there is no dependency
or --disable in the .mk file...

Oops... forgot about that. I've been sitting on that patch because 
libqmi v1.0 has some bugs that have been fixed, but they haven't set a 
version number since then, so it's just got a sha for the version 
number. I'll go ahead and submit that, though.

Yes, actually, I do that with libqmi, so I'm familiar with that.
