Well spotted.
This is due to commit ea9669fffae7d807ccb3810eb6c662cbb9e8f96f, which
removed the core-dependencies target. This target is explicit used by
autobuild-run to check if the system has all necessary dependencies,
and if not, simply move on to the next build. Due to this, all master
configurations fail on "core-dependencies does not exist".
The correct target to use now is "dependencies".
However, in 2018.02.x, it's still "core-dependencies" that should be
used. Using "dependencies" in 2018.02.x would not be good, because
"dependencies" triggers the build of host-{tar,xz,ccache,lzip}, and
therefore a failure in the build of those packages would not be
reported on autobuild.b.o.
So I see two options:
(1) Re-introduce a "core-dependencies" target, that is the same as the
"dependencies" target
(2) Tweak the autobuild-run script, and make a special case depending
on the branch name: if we're on 2018.02.x, use "core-dependencies",
otherwise use "dependencies".
Arnout, Peter, any preference ? I'm leaning towards (2) since that's
the solution that doesn't pollute Buildroot with unnecessary stuff.
Best regards,
Thomas
