Yann E. MORIN aff2f73958 Revert "package/skeleton-custom: also check for missing directories" This partially reverts commit `cf6d321e9d`. The underlying reason for doing the checks is to ensure that a merged-usr setting is properly enforced, even for custom skeletons. Before that patch, a custom skeleton where both /bin and /usr/bin were missing was accepted; but then the first package that intalled something in /bin would create it as a directory, thus breaking the merged-usr situation. Ditto sbin and lib, of course. `cf6d321` was created to detect that situation, and the fix was to require that both directories do exist in the custom skeleton, so that we new the check for consistency were OK, in all cases. However, that broke existing skeletons which where missing both directories, and some people are shinning about it... The crux of the problem is that Buildroot should be responsible for creating the directories or the symliks when they are missing, and only fail if the existing ones are incorrect, but not impose the burden on the user. A situation where the problem arises is when a skeleton is shared between various builds, some using a merged-usr while other do not. We fix that by reverting the offending changes change, back to the previous behaviour. We keep the stderr redirection in stat calls, and the variable renaming. A proper fix to create the missing directories can be added later. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

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.
