I can do this. I wasn't even aware of this branch, and part of the
reason is that it doesn't show up on the cgit web interface
(http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot) when there's no trailing slash in
the URI, which is unfortunately the location the website
(http://buildroot.uclibc.org/git.html) points visitors to. You can click
on "refs" and back on "summary" which will add the "/" suffix, and then
cgit will show the existance of the "next" branch. Very odd.

Not sure whether I follow you here. Do you suggest writing package
definitions for sources that are not released yet officially? If that is
the case, what is the reason?

Also, I fail to see how the commit you pointed me to is related to the
changed location of libnl-3. Is this not something that should be
addressed independently?

All my other libnl-related patches still seem to apply fine on the -next
branch, though.
