[Buildroot] [PATCH v4 1/9] Makefile, skeleton: move the host skeleton logic to host-skeleton package

[Yann E. MORIN]

Thomas, All,

On 2018-03-24 15:20 +0100, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> As part of the per-package SDK work, we want to avoid having logic
> that installs files to the global HOST_DIR, and instead do it inside
> packages. One thing that gets installed to the global HOST_DIR is the
> minimal "skeleton" that we create in host:
> 
>  - the "usr" symbolic link for backward compatibility
> 
>  - the "lib" directory, and its lib64 or lib32 symbolic links
> 
> This commit moves this logic to a new host-skeleton package, and makes
> all packages (except itself) depend on it. We also make sure that this
> host-skeleton package doesn't depend on host-patchelf, because
> host-patchelf depends on host-skeleton.
> 
> While at it, use $(Q) instead of @ in the HOST_SKELETON_INSTALL_CMDS.

In fact, I'm not too sure I should have given my Reviewed-by tag,
because now the graph-depends are all borked: all packages have a
dependency arrow toward host-skeleton.

What about adding host-skeleton as a dependency to skeleton-init-common
and skeleton-custom only?

Or we can also just add host-skeleton as a special case in
support/scripts/graph-depends...

Yann E. MORIN.
