[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/2] Fix check for Python modules for cross-compilation

[Yann E. MORIN]

Hello Simon and Peter!

Here are two patches to enhance (fix) the check of Python modules while
cross-compiling.

There is extensive explanations in the commit log of each patch, but it
basically boils down to the fact that we can't check for Python modules
while doing cross-compilation:
  - we can't execute the target Python (obviously) 
  - the host Python may not have the required module(s)

We've stumbled into this issue while building ola with Buildroot:
    http://buildroot.org/

If you prefer a pull-request, I can set up a public repo for you to pull
from.

I'm sending those to you two, since I could not find a contact info for
where to send the patches. If I missed it, please be kind enough to
point me to the correct recipient(s) or mailing list.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
