[Buildroot] package libfreefare: site url question

[arnaud aujon]

Hi,

I noticed that libfreefare package refers to the site
nfc-tools.googlecode.com, even if the current archive (libfreefare-0.3.4)
is present in nfc-tools repository, it seems better to use the libfreefare
repository (libfreefare.googlecode.com).
Is there a reason for that ?
As i'm working on a script to automatically check updates, it would be way
easier for me :)

  Given that nobody has answered yet: I don't think there's a specific 
reason for that. The two packages were added to buildroot at the same 
time; maybe libfreerare didn't exist yet as a separate project.

  You'll probably find other cases where the upstream site is no longer 
accurate.

  Arnout

patch.
