All,

On 2014-01-29 22:48 +0100, Yann E. MORIN spake thusly:

> 
> The current default for BR2_PACKAGE_OVERRIDE_FILE points to:
>     $(TOPDIR)/local.mk
> 
> This works well for in-tree builds, but is not very useful for
> out-of-tree builds, when the Buildroot source tree may be shared for
> different concurrent builds.
> 
> Also, it seems to be more sensible to have local.mk alognside
> the .config file.
> 
> Hence, change the default for BR2_PACKAGE_OVERRIDE_FILE to point to:
>     $(CONFIG_DIR)/local.mk
> 
> Note that this does not change the current behaviour for in-tree
> builds, since in that case $(CONFIG_DIR) == $(TOPDIR).
