well, at this point, buildtool is very much still work in progress, meaning that it is surely not capable of building the whole distro - initrd and root are the biggest ones still missing, but there's also more work to be done for the things that already seem to be working (like the kernel, which doesn't have PCMCIA and IPSec support yet, if it's built with buildtool).I use to build bering-uClibc from scratch (cvs) and managed this for old 1.x releases. Now, using new buildtool I succeeded to build kernel and applications found in global.cfg but don't have a clue about making initrd.lrp or root.lrp ; in old 1.x these "basic" packages were generated by default, but now? If someone have an idea, please don't let me in the dark of ignorance ... please :).
We're working on getting everything into buildtool, but things aren't moving along as quickly as we all would like (and the issues with ViewCVS haven't helped lately) - but any kind of feedback you can give us with regard to buildtool will be highly appreciated.
But please note: buildtool is not yet used to create the majority of the packages for Bering uClibc - apart from the packages I maintain (openssl, openssh, hdsupp, lcd4linux, mhttpd and a few others). So there is a good chance that the package buildtool/buildpacket creates will not be the same as what has been released (and tested) for Bering uClibc. This too will change (hopefully in the not too distant future).
