This looks good, but I don't see the patch in your e-mail :)
> NOTE: I had to delete output/build/python-2.7.3/ for the enabled pyexpat to take effect during a rebuild (simple "make") of buildroot. I presume this is because it's configured and built with python-2.7.3, but perhaps this should be handled automatically -- marking python-2.7.3 "dirty" somehow?
No, Buildroot doesn't try to be smart about detecting what needs to be
rebuilt after a configuration change or a .mk/Config.in change. See
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#full-rebuild. It's up
to the user to know what to rebuild, or to trigger a full rebuild when
in doubt.
Best regards,
Thomas
