[Buildroot] Add packages

[Buildroot] Add packages

[Francisco Gonzalez]

Hello, I have recently begin to use buildroot. It's great.

I could manage to add 2 packages. My question is if there is any way to
submit this packages (config.in and package.mak) to
buildroot, for the case any other wants to use it.
BTW they are GPL packages.

regards,
Francisco Gonz?lez

Sure, send a patch to the mailing list or attach it to a feature request
in the bugtracker (http://bugs.busybox.net).

Should I use the git version in order to create the patch, I use the 2009.08
version?
How can I check what are the dependencies of the packages?, these compiles
fine with the settings I use but I do not know what happens if some packages
have not been selected?

Preferably git.

It's normally clear from looking at configure.ac and/or a README. If
that fails, just try to do a clean build with no other packages enabled.
