[Buildroot] Buildroot ARM toolchain build Error: libexpat

[Thiago A. Corrêa]

Hi,

If this is a package from buildroot that you are compiling, it should
be looking for libexpat in the staging_dir, not in the system
libs/includes.

Did you enable expat in the menuconfig? Which package is failing?
Could you share your .config file?

Kind Regards,
   Thiago A. Correa
