Usually package tarballs contain only a directory named "<pkg-name>-<pkg-version>" which contains the actual source tree. To properly extract the source files in $(BUILD_DIR), Buildroot passes the --strip-components=1 option to tar. Unfortunately a few packages ship in a non-standard way, with no root directory or with more than one. In Buildroot these packages must be handled by overriding the <PKG>_DOWNLOAD_CMDS. As the number of such packages is growing, introduce a <PKG>_STRIP_COMPONENTS variable for packages to request a number of components to strip different from 1.

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.
