When BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON{,3}_PYC_ONLY=y, we force remove all .py files
from the system, as they have all been byte-compiled into their .pyc
variants.
However, it turns out that some packages (e.g: OpenCV) do some funky
things with a few .py files: they pass them through Python's
execfile() facility, which only works with .py files and not .pyc
files. It is used by OpenCV for example to read two small
configuration files.
In order to support such use cases, this commit introduces a very
simple mechanism by which packages can exclude some path patterns from
the .py removal: a per-package <pkg>_KEEP_PY_FILES variable that is
collected into a global PYTHON_KEEP_PY_FILES variable, then used by
the python/python3 target-finalize hooks.
This variable is intentionally not documented, this is really a hack
that we ideally would like to see go away, and we'd rather not see its
usage spread too much.
This is necessary to be able to fix bug #12171.

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. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
