Other changes include:
- Refreshing all necessary patches for 3.7.0
- Add a hash for the license file.
- Python no longer has it's own internal libffi, as such, host-libffi
is now required to build host-python3, and is added as a
dependency.
- Drop PYTHON3_LIBTOOL_PATCH = NO, since there is no longer any
internal libffi copy that was causing the libtool patching process
to fail.
- A new core module "uuid" is now is added in the Config.in file, and
relies on util-linux's uuid library.
- Also, a new patch: 0030-Fix-cross-compiling-the-uuid-module.patch
is required to fix compiling the uuid module, because the include
directory search path for uuid.h is hardcoded to /usr/include/uuid,
which causes an "unsafe for cross-compilation" error during
compiling if the host pc has uuid headers installed.
- 0031-Add-an-option-to-disable-uuid-module.patch is added to allow
disabling the Python3 UUID module, so that when
BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3_UUID is disabled by the UUID library is
present, the uuid Python module is not built, as expected.
- 0032-fix-building-on-older-distributions.patch is added to change
os.replace by os.rename in the update_file.py script to fix
building on older Linux distributions that have older versions of
python that don't include os.replace.
os.rename acts in the same way as os.replace, but is cross-platform
compatible. Because Buildroot is guaranteed to be built in a POSIX
environment, it is safe to change replace to rename.
