I'm investigating about making an unofficial third party repository with OpenWrt (non-kmod) packages where patented functionality is enabled. For example ffmpeg from packages is missing some functionality in its "non-patented" form and most end users won't be able to just recompile from sources with that option enabled.

Is there a non-hacky way to build only packages that are affected by the "patented functionality" switch in the build system?

At the moment the only thing I can think about is a script that parses the package makefiles and compiles a list, and then builds only those packages with the SDK or buildroot.

The packages.git CI uses a little script to determine what packages changes. I think that step could be trivially modified to find patent packages.

Once you have the names, you could pass them to a GitHub action to automatically compile and upload/store.

I briefly describe a setup here:
