Yann E. MORIN 2496189a42 core: drop check-uniq-files
Back a few years ago, when we were starting to think about top-level
parallel build, we were not sure how to deal with packages that
installed the same files, so we wanted to catch the situation to assess
how prevalent that was, before we decided what to do and how to address
it.

However, the trend nowadays is that packages will install in a
per-package target/ (and staging/ and host/), and the final directories
will be assembled in a reproducible (alphabetical) order, so if two
packages install the same file, the last one will win (as is currently
the case).

Besides, check-uniq-files reports loads of spurious errors when packages
get reinstalled (e.g. during development).

Finally, check-uniq-files is the only script called during the build,
that is written in python.

So, get rid of check-uniq-files.

README

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.
