When the rootfs is compressed with lzma, lzo or xz, we
use the binary compiled by buildroot. But with gzip
or bzip, we use the tools of the machine. This serie
change this behaviour for gzip and bzip2, it add
a dependancy on host-<compressor> and use it to
compress the rootfs.

Philippe Reynes (2):
  rootfs-gzip: use host-gzip instead of local gzip
  rootfs-bzip: use host-bzip2 instead of local bzip2
