Nov 20 13:21:07 <CIA-24> ejka * r9584 /trunk/ (Config.in include/kernel-defaults.mk): add external kernel tree support
Nov 20 13:23:03 <nbd> ejka: what's the rmdir command in that changeset for?
Nov 20 13:23:36 <nbd> also: what specifically are you using this for?
Nov 20 13:26:41 <ejka> if $(LINUX_DIR) exists, you'll get symlink inside
Nov 20 13:27:16 <nbd> but rmdir only kills it if it's empty
Nov 20 13:27:20 <nbd> and how likely is that?
Nov 20 13:27:28 <ejka> sure, and will fail if it is not
Nov 20 13:27:41 <ejka> with make failing
Nov 20 13:28:29 <nbd> shouldn't it just get rid of the old tree?
Nov 20 13:28:43 <ejka> and I use it to build my kernel git master, which is frequently rebased agains several trees
Nov 20 13:28:46 <nbd> or even better, just redirect LINUX_DIR instead of doing a symlink
Nov 20 13:29:12 <ejka> ghm, haven't thought about it
Nov 20 13:29:41 <nbd> if you just point LINUX_DIR at the right tree, then there's no need to remove the old tree or check for its presence
Nov 20 13:29:50 <ejka> yeah

Nov 20 19:46:48 <noz> Hmm. robocfg.c:58: error: field 'ifr' has incomplete type
Nov 20 19:47:12 <nbd> noz: rm -rf staging_dir/mipsel; make
Nov 20 19:47:22 <nbd> noz: after svn update or git-svn rebase
Nov 20 19:47:25 <noz> OK. Ta. That was quick!
Nov 20 19:48:23 <noz> I have some issues with the build system right now. I think we should be able to reconfigure (changing toolchain), and just make and have it "Just Work"(TM)
Nov 20 19:49:18 <noz> At the moment, it doesn't build a non-existent toolchain because the stamp files under staging_dir/mipsel are stil present.
Nov 20 19:50:23 <noz> What causes the 'ifr' problem (other than the obvious "staging_dir/mipsel" answer! :)
Nov 20 19:55:11 <nbd> libnl installed include files that broke various packages
Nov 20 19:55:15 <nbd> i moved them to a different place
Nov 20 19:59:23 <nbd> noz: just committed a change that moves some of the toolchain stamps out of staging_dir/mipsel
Nov 20 19:59:34 <nbd> they weren't supposed to be there anyway
Nov 20 19:59:42 <nbd> after that, switching the toolchain should work
Nov 20 19:59:51 <noz> Timely. Ta
Nov 20 21:56:18 <noz> At what point does the Build/InstallDev section of a Makefile get invoked? tcpdump is failing to build because the pcap headers aren't found.
Nov 20 21:57:10 <noz> However, the Build/InstallDev section of the Makefile has a copy step for them, and the tcpdump package depends on libpcap
Nov 20 21:57:16 <nbd> it gets invoked at from the compile target
Nov 20 21:57:27 <nbd> even when the package itself is not selected
Nov 20 21:58:24 <noz> and "        $(CP)   $(PKG_INSTALL_DIR)/usr/include/pcap{,-bpf,-namedb}.h \
Nov 20 21:58:24 <noz>                 $(1)/usr/include/
Nov 20 21:58:24 <noz> " causes them to be copied to staging_dir/mipsel/usr/include, yes?
Nov 20 21:58:40 <nbd> ye
Nov 20 21:58:42 <nbd> yes
Nov 20 22:00:11 <noz> (or not in my case!) It might be a partial build issue, given that I've just deleted staging_dir/mipsel. I'll delete the whole of build_dir and retry
Nov 20 22:07:11 <nbd> i see the problem
Nov 20 22:10:00 <nbd> fixing
Nov 20 22:43:42 <CIA-24> nbd * r9588 /trunk/include/package.mk: fix build issues that happen when the staging dir is cleared and the build directories stay
Nov 21 00:06:27 <noz> make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/Linksys-devel/toolchain/kernel-headers'
Nov 21 00:06:27 <noz> ln -s  /usr/local/Linksys-devel/build_dir/toolchain-mipsel_gcc4.1.2/linux-2.6.23.1
Nov 21 00:06:27 <noz> ln: creating symbolic link `./linux-2.6.23.1' to `/usr/local/Linksys-devel/build_dir/toolchain-mipsel_gcc4.1.2/linux-2.6.23.1': File exists
Nov 21 00:07:24 <noz> Grrr. That should probably be 'ln -sf', but it's late, and I'm not 100%, so I thought I'd ask a 2nd opinion...
Nov 21 00:14:01 <nbd> erm.. the ln -s command only has one argument
Nov 21 00:15:19 <nbd> noz: run make oldconfig
