There are (at least) 2 tricky aspects indeed.

1) Shiboken does not support to be built in place. A build directory is 
mandatory. (Else it fails, because it attempts to link the "shiboken" 
binary at a location where the is a directory of the same name)
FYI, see: http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building_PySide_on_Linux

For now I cannot see such an option in the Cmake infrastructure in 
buildroot.
Would that be a potential improvement ?

2) When compiling the host version, it fails with that error:

  from 
/nous/BASYSTEMES/buildroot/output/build/host-shiboken-1.2.1/ApiExtractor/apiextractor.cpp:24:
/nous/BASYSTEMES/buildroot/output/host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-gnueabihf/sysroot/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:7:29: 
error: gnu/stubs-soft.h: no such file or directory

The issue is that looking at the headers in the sysroot cannot work,
I am using BR2_ARM_FPU_NEON for my target, I suspect that I do not have 
got the soft stubs due to that.
Anyway, shouldn't the host build rather take host headers instead ?

Best regards
Thierry
