Move stamp (dependency) files outside the (version specific) source
directories, so other packages can hardcode dependencies on them instead
of having to use <PACKAGE>_VERSION variables.
This is important as the variables in the make rules are evaluated when
the rules is seen, which might be before the dependent makefile is parsed
(and hence <PACKAGE>_VERSION variable is known, screwing up stuff.
The downside of this is that the package isn't automatically rebuilt
when the version changes (E.G. by a svn update) and you now also have to
remove the stamp files next to $(BUILD_DIR)/<PACKAGE>-* to force a rebuild.
This matches upstream tarball, doesn't screw up existing .config's with
BR2_PACKAGE_PKGCONFIG and makes sure the patch gets applied for target
compilation.
The host versions shouldn't be visible in Kconfig, so remove the
reference to BR2_PACKAGE_PKGCONFIG everywhere and prefix the host targets
with host-.
At the same time add pkgconfig for the target (E.G. for development) and
let BR2_PACKAGE_PKGCONFIG control that package.
Notice: all defconfigs in the tree have been updated, but make sure to
disable the pkgconfig package (unless you want it) if you use an external
config, otherwise you'll end up with pkgconfig and glib2 in the target.
libpng used to have the 'png' Makefile alias, which some packages used
in their dependencies list.
With the move to Makefile.autotools.in this is now gone, so update the
packages to match.
quite work yet for me, but this clearly is a huge project and not having it
quite work on the first pass is hardly unexpected. We definately want this
stuff in buildroot.
they should be configured with --prefix=/usr and we then need to use
make DESTDIR=$(STAGING_DIR) install to get things installed into the
staging directory. The current situation for many packages, which use
--prefix=$(STAGING_DIR) results in the staging_dir paths getting compiled
into the binary itself.
This also adds in a pile of libtool fixups. Between broken pkgconfig,
broken libtool handling, and broken --prefix settings, its a wonder
things have worked as well as they have up till now.
