Hi Doug, Yes, you are correct, one of the main differences is the extra directory level. It looks simple but one actually gets alot from it, separating the snapgears makefiles (or building framework to put a name for it) from whatever build framework a package may have although most will have m

Hi Per, I believe your concept is similar to what Greg/David have started with 'makefile' (versus 'Makefile'), creating a build directory, and running configure from the build directory (net-snmp and quagga are examples). In other words, 'makefile' contains the uClinux/snapgear "glue". The one d

Hi all, This is why I some months ago suggested to take the "glue makefile" concept in use :) The glue makefile concept is that in snapgear/user every "package" looks like this snapgear/[user|lib]/ Makefile This structure is owned by snapgear. The "glue makefile" is the makefile

Hi, I'm not sure, but it seems BusyBox is difficult to build. I don't really know what is going on, but here's my experience so far. The first time I attempted to build uClinux (uClinux-dist-20070130, target board M5329EVB, ColdFire 5329), I selected a goodly number of BusyBox "commands".
