Hi Peter,
Many questions, see inline:

Hi Jurgen,
I think in your case you may need to adjust your PATH variable in the
.spec file when running configure so that you pick up your hosts
autotools for this package.
Unfortunately there is a need for the autotools in /opt/ltib/...
although I can't recall which package needs it (I do have notes
somewhere though).
Is there any chance of updating git in LTIB? The version in git is
really old compared to current versions distributed with Ubuntu, and
it causes problems when trying to use git to pull out branches of a
packages while building (i.e. building a package from an SCM as
opposed to from tarball/patches).
Yes, I don't think that would break anything.
Also bison and flex in LTIB are also quite old and cause problems when
building hostapd and libnl-2.0 to bring up soft AP wireless systems...
Unfortunately from what I remember, there are other packages that need
these versions, which is why they got put into /opt/ltib. Can't
completely remember if both has package dependencies or not.
Granted I know I'm in a breadline begging for toast, but how can I
teach ltib to remove a host package if its no longer called out for in
config/userspace/ltib.preconfig? Then it should be relatively easy to
disable flex/bison and add them to pre_install_deps, remove
.host_wait_warning* and the next "./ltib" should clean things up in
/opt/ltib/user/bin...
You can run ./ltib --hostcf --configure and that will let you configure
what goes into the host support packages without having to touch
.host_wait_*
Be warned though that because it goes through the config system, the
dependencies for packages get evaluated, so some other packages you
didn't expect may get pulled in.
Note: with --hostcf, you can do all the normal ltib stuff, with a few
provisos.
Thanks in advance!
Regards, Stuart
