Yann E. MORIN fc08a57305 package/gawk: do not use readeline ormpfr in host variant
gawk has an optional dependency on mpfr (and thus gmp) and readline,
and will probe for them. If they are present, they are used; if they
are missing, that's not an error. mpfr (and gmp) is used for "BIGNUM"
support on gawk; readline is used by the gawk debugger.

However, mpfr (bringing gmp) are also host-packages in Buildroot, but in
the standard build order (i.e. a plain 'make'), they are built after
gawk. Ditto readline (from ncurses).

If the user has the development files for gmp and mpfr, then gawk is
linked to them. Ditto readline.

Now, further on in the build, we build gmp and mpfr (for gcci or guile),
so we install them in the host dir. Ditto readline (for gdb, ncurses
itself and a few other packages...)

But because we forcibly set an RPATH tag on all our host binaries, our
host gawk will now dynamically link with our versions, when it was in
fact built against the host ones.

This did not seem to cause any harm so far, but is far from ideal.

Since we do not really need BIGNUM or the debugger in our host gawk, we
just forcibly disable them and configure gawk without readline or mpfr
(there's no switch for gmp, but it's not a direct dependency, it comes
just with mpfr).

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.
