For some historical reasons, the directfb-examples package has one sub-option for each example, and the .mk files go through some great lengths to install only the needed data files for each example. This is a bit silly for several reasons: * In no other Buildroot package we do offer such a fine-grained selection of what the package installs; * directfb-examples are examples, they are therefore typically not meant to be used on a final production system, but more during development or for demonstration. Those are situations where size generally isn't that critical (all installed, the package takes 2.4 MB on the rootfs); * Those options and the .mk file logic has to be updated whenever the package is bumped; * Users can always use a post-build script to keep only the examples they are interested in. All the options are moved to Config.in.legacy. However, we could debate on whether this is actually useful, since the main option BR2_PACKAGE_DIRECTFB_EXAMPLES will now install a superset of whatever was selected before through sub-options.

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.
