My goal is to port libuci to Buildroot as I have some software, that
I've written for OpenWRT and now would like to use in BR too. The
software uses /etc/config/* infrastructure to access its configuration
files via libuci.
libubox it a dependency of libuci.
I've also found libuci installation tutorials for Ubuntu :-)

Hm. That's really odd. Should I omit license information for now?

I wanted to start with a simple configuration, as I don't need Lua
right now, but I'll incorporate this feature in the v2.
