Greetings. Any thoughts on this one?  

 

This post (
<http://buildroot.uclibc.narkive.com/wXlmUu43/patch-br2-external-make-it-ava
ilable-to-post-build-image-scripts>
http://buildroot.uclibc.narkive.com/wXlmUu43/patch-br2-external-make-it-avai
lable-to-post-build-image-scripts) suggests BR2_EXTERNAL is exported to all
configure/make/shell stages.

 

Given the following external config.in

 

#---------------snip---------------------

source "$BR2_EXTERNAL_TARGET1_PATH/package/libxyz/Config.in"

source "$BR2_EXTERNAL/package/appxyz/Config.in"

#---------------snip---------------------

 

Any attempt to configure fails with

 

/home/user/br/external/target1/Config.in:2: can't open file
"/package/appxyz/Config.in"

 

What is the best way to ensure $BR2_EXTERNAL is available at the configure
stage?

 

TAIA and BR

 

Jerry.
