[Buildroot] buildroot with glibc instead of uclibc because i need some libraries not provided for uclibc

[Alessio.Stella at gidi.it]

Dear Sir,
      i am looking for detailed info on how to use buildroot using glibc
instead of uclibc. Could you please provide suggestions and/or links ?

I googled and I didn't found much except this link which is not very clear
to me: http://lists.debian.org/debian-embedded/2005/04/msg00059.html

The reason for this is that some libraries i need are not in open source
(only compiled) so I cannot use them without ordinary glibc!!

Please help me!!
Thank you very much

Kind regards,

No such thing exists. You should in theory be able to do it with the
external toolchain support, but I've never heard from anyone trying
it.

I was the one who originally put external toolchain support into buildroot
specifically to use glibc instead of uClibc via an external toolchain.
That said, buildroot does not support building glibc or a glibc toolchain
within the buildroot framework.

Actually this was a million times here, and somebody did the support in Dec 2008.
Patch was posted to this list. I tried to test it but never got past applying the
patch - no time :(

TIA,

Do you mean 'an external toolchain with glibc' or using buildroot to build a toolchain with glibc?

The second, to build a toolchain that uses glibc instead of uClibc.
