[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/2] core/sdk: fix relative symlinks in generated tarball (branch yem/sdk)

Hello All!

This two-patch series is my counter-proposal to Joel's path to try and
fix the issue:
    https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1009168/

The first patch fixes the absolute symlinks, that were so far not
accounted for at all. A new helper scripts changes them into relative
symlinks.

The second patch is the actual fix to the issue Joel's patch was trying
to solve. I believe it is a better and simpler solution, although I have
to admit the patsubst trickery is not obvious.


Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
