Yet another question regarding non-MMU support and support for static
builds in Buildroot. Obviously, not all packages support non-MMU
architectures and/or static build, so it'd be good to not allow the
users to select those packages. So the packages known to work for
non-MMU and/or static build should be clearly identified.
So, what about adding:
depends on BR2_USE_MMU
depends on !BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB
on all packages, except those that have been validated to work in those
two conditions ?
Of course, it means adding those two depends on lines to a lot of
packages, but I don't see a way of doing the opposite with the kconfig
language.
Regards,
Thomas
