Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 0 of 3] Add support for local package downloads (file://)
Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2011 08:27:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <patchbomb.1300174025@localhost6.localdomain6> (raw)

This patch series add support for file:// URLs for both the package
infrastructure, as for the BR2_PRIMARY_SITE and BR2_BACKUP_SITE options. URLs
starting with file:// will be handled by a plain 'cp' instead of wget. A new
SITE_METHOD 'file' is added. Documentation is updated as well.

Note that this is mainly useful in situations where developers working on a
project are sharing the same filesystem (e.g. disk, NFS, ...), as typically
is the case in corporate environments. In that case, one may add one or more
local project-specific packages, and even use a central storage location as
'proxy' for package downloads (using BR2_PRIMARY_SITE with a file:// URL).
