Vincent Fazio bb7822abad package/pkg-autotools: add FOO_AUTOPOINT flag
Add a new variable to run autopoint during autoreconf.

This variable depends on FOO_AUTORECONF = YES. It is mutually exclusive
to FOO_GETTEXTIZE. If both are set, FOO_AUTOPOINT is ignored to preserve
previous behavior.

This support is being added per a previous discussion [1].

The usage of gettextize needs to be removed cuz mama says so [2].
  ... is not part of the GNU build system, in the sense that it should
  not be invoked automatically, and not be invoked by someone who doesn’t
  assume the responsibilities of a package maintainer. For the latter
  purpose, a separate tool is provided, see Invoking the autopoint Program [3]

Using gettextize has the unintended consequence of updating the package
based on the version of host-gettext vs what was chosen by the upstream
maintainer. As mama said above, we should use autopoint. Do as she says
to avoid further scolding (gettextize shoehorning and package patching).

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 OFTC IRC.
