           Summary: Support rc versions of kernel headers
           Product: buildroot
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P5
         Component: Other
        AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
        ReportedBy: will.newton at gmail.com
                CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
   Estimated Hours: 0.0


buildroot does not currently support building against rc versions of kernel
headers. The download step fails because the download directory differs between
rc and final kernel releases. This patch tries to detect when an rc kernel is
being used and download from the correct location.

Will, are you still interested by this? You never attached any patch to this
bug. Since the bug is three years old and I know you've been active in
Buildroot since that time, I suppose you're no longer that much interested in
this feature, so I'm marking this as "won't fix". However, if you're interested
in reviving this, do not hesitate to send a patch (I believe if we need such a
feature, we should simply allow to specify a custom tarball location of kernel
sources for the kernel headers).
