[Buildroot] Help Adding Package to build root..

[astrolite .]

Hi all sorry for my stupid question but i've a problem to adding a packages
to buid root..

I need to add a package called pigpio.
I've create a .tar.gz on github with all the file required.
The link is : https://github.com/ciclonite/pigpio


Here what happens:
gzip -d -c
/root/qt-dev/buildroot-qt-dev/buildroot-2015.05/dl/libpigpio-38.tar.gz |
tar --strip-components=1 -C
/root/qt-dev/buildroot-qt-dev/buildroot-2015.05/output/build/libpigpio-38
 -xf -
>>> libpigpio 38 Patching
>>> libpigpio 38 Updating config.sub and config.guess
for file in config.guess config.sub; do for i in $(find
/root/qt-dev/buildroot-qt-dev/buildroot-2015.05/output/build/libpigpio-38
-name $file); do cp support/gnuconfig/$file $i; done; done
>>> libpigpio 38 Configuring
>>> libpigpio 38 Autoreconfiguring
autoreconf: 'configure.ac' or 'configure.in' is required
Why the autoreconf cannot find configure.ac? in the tar.gz it's present!

I need a help..
Thanks a lot.
Giovanni

I've made a very simple and minimalistic pgipio package:

    $ cat package/pigpio/pigpio.mk
    PIGPIO_VERSION = 924b8d2baf2d36336bf9ba320a22f3306783c051
    PIGPIO_SITE = $(call github,ciclonite,pigpio,$(PIGPIO_VERSION))
    PIGPIO_AUTORECONF = YES
    $(eval $(autotools-package))

And it does autoreconf nicely for me.

Care to share your own .mk so we can compare and identify your issue?

It does not build, because there is a missing custom.cext file, but your
direct problem does not happen for me.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

 Is it in the build directory
/root/qt-dev/buildroot-qt-dev/buildroot-2015.05/output/build/libpigpio-38 ?

 Could you share your Config.in and pigpio.mk so we can check it? The version
"38" is suspicious since there is no corresponding tag in the github repo, so I
wonder if you really have the correct tarball.

 Arnout

Hi Arnout,
In the directory
/root/qt-dev/buildroot-qt-dev/buildroot-2015.05/output/build/libpigpio-38
is present only config.in libpigpio.mk
These are my files:
Config.in

config BR2_PACKAGE_LIBPIGPIO
bool "libpigpio"
help
 pigpio is a C library for the Raspberry Pi which allows control of the
general purpose input outputs (gpios).

libpigpio.mk

LIBPIGPIO_VERSION = 38
LIBPIGPIO_INSTALL_TARGET = YES
LIBPIGPIO_INSTALL_STAGING = YES
LIBPIGPIO_AUTORECONF = YES
LIBPIGPIO_SITE = https://github.com/ciclonite/pigpio

ifeq ($(BR2_PACKAGE_LIBPIGPIO),y)
TARGETS+=libpigpio
endif
$(eval $(autotools-package))

Thanks a lot.
Giovanni

 You have done something very weird, since
https://github.com/ciclonite/pigpio/libpigpio-38.tar.gz
doesn't exist. I guess you manually put that file into your dl directory, but
the file is just wrong, it contain the buildroot package files instead of the
sources.

 I think you should read the Buildroot manual about adding packages,
particularly the part about the github helper. You'll probably want to set the
version to 07e2a66f73c7bc5d60b373a2f8a25a4294f2d778 because everything you did
after that commit looks like rubbish to me.

 This bit should be removed - it's done automatically by the autotools-package
macro.
