In fact, this patch is causing some problems. Now, when
BR2_SHARED_LIBS=y, musl is built with --disable-static. Due to this,
there is no libc.a generated for musl. For the internal toolchain
backend, this is OK.
But when the produced toolchain gets re-used as an external toolchain,
it fails because the external toolchain logic in Buildroot uses "gcc
-print-file-name=libc.a" to find the sysroot. Since there is no libc.a,
it fails and the toolchain cannot be used.
Arnout, Yann, Peter, what do you think about this?
Should we always produce a libc.a in the musl case, so that it's more
like glibc and uClibc.
Or should we adjust our external toolchain logic to fallback on
searching for a different file than libc.a when libc.a is not available?
Thanks for your feedback,
Thomas
