[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/mpd: enable smb support on uClibc

[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/mpd: enable smb support on uClibc

[Thomas Petazzoni via buildroot]

samba4 is available on !musl, but samba support in mpd is available
only with glibc. Turns out that samba support in mpd builds just fine
with uClibc-ng, and that samba4 no longer needs native RPC support: it
can use libtirpc when needed (it's handled in the samba4 package
itself).

Tested with the following defconfig:

BR2_aarch64=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_BOOTLIN=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_BOOTLIN_AARCH64_UCLIBC_BLEEDING_EDGE=y
BR2_PACKAGE_MPD=y
BR2_PACKAGE_MPD_LIBSMBCLIENT=y
