As a noob on this list, if there isn't already a way to add user
defined packages, could I suggest the following?
In package/Config.in add the following line:
source "user_package/Config.in"
In a new directory named "user_package" have a file called Config.in
with the following:
menu "User Packages"
source "package/YourUserDefinedPackage/Config.in"
endmenu
The advantage to this is that it allows users to add to their list of
packages without affecting (or in anyway touching) the files within
the "package" directory. And it gives noobs such as myself a feeling
of security that they aren't messing up something important.
Cheers,
Lloyd
