[Buildroot] [PATCH 05/10] start-stop-daemon: new package

Hello,

+START_STOP_DAEMON_CONF_OPTS = --disable-dselect
> --disable-update-alternatives \
> +       --exec-prefix=/
>

I would also add --disable-install-info, to prevent building
utils/dpkg-install-info - this will still build 7 unwanted binaries.
Maybe add a small patch to configure to force "make" to skip dpkg-deb,
dpkg-split and src directories?

+START_STOP_DAEMON_LICENSE = GPLv2+
> +START_STOP_DAEMON_LICENSE_FILES = debian/copyright


That is not entirely true. utils/start-stop-daemon.c clearly states that it
is public domain. I guess dpkg is GPLv2+, but we are not packaging dpkg
here. What is Buildroot's policy in this case?

Best regards,
Karoly
