gnutls's configure script has a weird approach where it first searches
for dependent libraries in the path specified by --prefix, before
searching in the default search path. Since we set --prefix to /usr,
and it doesn't take into account DESTDIR (which is anyway not set at
configure time), that means it will first search /usr/lib before
searching $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/lib.
Ideally, this would be fixed in the configure script itself. However,
the m4 file that does this is pretty complex, it's not immediately clear
where to add $DESTDIR. In addition it comes from gnulib which is a
somewhat annoying upstream.
Therefore, instead, bypass the prefix lookup with
--without-libfoo-prefix. Note that we could set
--with-libfoo-prefix=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr (the latter is already done for
librt and libpthread), but that's pretty pointless -
--without-libfoo-prefix in fact reverts to what should have been done in
the first place, i.e. use the toolchain search path.
Add --without-libfoo-prefix for all options defined in configure (found
with ./configure --help | grep without-.*-prefix). Most of these are
only used in tests (e.g. libcrypto) or even not at all (e.g. libiconv),
but it's fairly hard to discover this and to be sure that they are
indeed not needed, so better pass all of them.
Remove the now-redundant arguments for librt and libpthread.
Add a comment to remind people to revisit these when bumping the
version.

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