* [Buildroot] [PATCH] cmake: forward HOST_{C, LD}FLAGS as cmake flags

During the CMake bootstrap phase, the {C,LD}FLAGS set in the bootstrap
environment are not forwarded/converted as CMake flags.

The CMake build contains a bootstrap phase building a minimal CMake
program using a standard Makfile, then reconfigures itself with this
minimal program.

On system with no ncurses installed, and because the prefix option
points to $(HOST_DIR)/usr, if host-cmake was built after host-ncurses,
then ncurses libraries and headers are correctly find (in the host tree)
during the second configuration (because of the prefix). However, it
fails at building ccmake (the curses interface) because the
CMAKE_C_FLAGS, CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS and CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS do not
point to the host tree.

Because these flags are needed when running the bootstrap script,
this patch makes sure the same flags are set when running the second
configuration.

I think HOST_CXXFLAGS must be used:

 -               -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="$(HOST_CFLAGS)"
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="$(HOST_CFLAGS)" \
+               -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="$(HOST_CFLAGS)"
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="$(HOST_CXXFLAGS)" \

In general I'm OK with this fix once it is, well... fixed according to
Fabio's comment.

But I still think disabling ccmake and other host tools that Buildroot
does not use would be a good idea. I agree with Thomas when he says
building host-cmake takes really long, although I am not sure we can
save a lot of time.

So I'd proceed quickly with this fix, and later disable unneeded tools
and see how much time we can save.

I think the same so after the revision of this patch  is sent i will
sent a revision of my patch rebased on this one.
That is also useful to remove a optionally unspecified dependency for
the sake of reproducible builds.

Samuel could you also break lines longer than 80 characters?

Thanks

Indeed, even if HOST_CXXFLAGS = $(HOST_CFLAGS) in buildroot ;-)
Will do.
