[Buildroot] big root fs

[Zoran Djordjevic]

Your mail server reports me some problems, that is not so much understandable 

to me, so I decided to post attachment in compressed version while repeating text 
once more:

Here is report from my output/target root file system, and as 
Mr Arnout proposed, I added "h" option, along with others.
I just want to say that there is some example programs, I built
for testing in /root folder, but I didn't take that into account,
when I reported overall RFS size. So size is about 100MB, 
as I stated earlier, without /root size.

Regards

Enable option BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE_PURGE. And you can probably set
BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE_WHITELIST to just "C en_US". This should get rid of
most of your usr/share/locale directory.

I'm wondering whether we should make BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE_PURGE=y and
BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE_WHITELIST="C en_US" the defaults.

Can you send the output of:

    cd output/target/
    ls -lRS

Best regards,
