Why is that needed?

Why? Please explain.

Please copy here the dependencies of BR2_PACKAGE_PROTOBUF. Please see the 
explanation under "Choosing depends on or select" in

Is there a reason not to use the latest version 1.2.5?

protobuf depends on host-protobuf already.

Please add a comment noting that autoreconf is needed because we are using the

Should be "COPYING COPYING.iOS", I guess. ocb-license.html is a patents grant. 
But IANAL.
