[Buildroot] Allowing target to modify fs

Hi All,
I am trying to update one of our projects to the latest snapshot in git.
I am having a problem following the new file system building changes.
The problem I have is that previously I had a target that was making
changes to the target fs (Which perhaps may not be correct but that's a
side issue). The problem is that in the top level makefile the target is
included after the fs include so it is added to TARGETS after the step
to build the fs. This means it runs after the fs has already been built.
I see there is the option to run a script to modify the target in
BR2_ROOTFS_POST_BUILD_SCRIPT but what I really want is to be able to
ensure a make target runs before the fs is built.
What would be the best way to solve this? I was thinking about doing
something similar to $(KERNEL_COND_PATCHES) which allows a target to
specify additional patches for linux. Something similar could be done with:
diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 2a70a5b..cf929b9 100644
--- a/Makefile
+++ b/Makefile
@@ -400,7 +400,7 @@ $(TARGET_DIR): $(BUILD_DIR)/.root
erase-fakeroots:
rm -f $(BUILD_DIR)/.fakeroot*
-target-finalize:
+target-finalize: $(TARGET_COND_TARGETS)
ifeq ($(BR2_HAVE_DEVFILES),y)
( scripts/copy.sh $(STAGING_DIR) $(TARGET_DIR) )
else
What does anyone think?
Will
