Yann E. MORIN 07e5641339 core/pkg-generic: allow packages to exclude files when extracting
Currently, packages that need to exclude parts of the archives when
extracting (e.g. to gain space), like gcc or toolchain-external, have to
provide custom extract commands, just for the sake of adding a bunch of
--exclude directives when calling tar.

Add a new variable that packages may set, to provide a space-separated
list of patterns to exclude.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
