Your Signed-off-by line should be here... and not after the changelog.

Final / missing.

I don't think this option is needed, just enable C++ support in the .mk
file when the relevant conditions are met.

depends on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_4

should be added here as well.

Please put the tarball hash before the license hash.

Not needed, this is the default.

Quite odd, why do you generate your tarballs like this ?

This is not good as it doesn't account for the BR2_SHARED_STATIC_LIBS
situation. So it should be:

ifeq ($(BR2_STATIC_LIBS)$(BR2_SHARED_STATIC_LIBS),y)
LIBMDBX_CONF_OPTS += -DMDBX_INSTALL_STATIC=ON
else
LIBMDBX_CONF_OPTS += -DMDBX_INSTALL_STATIC=OFF
endif

ifeq ($(BR2_SHARED_LIBS)$(BR2_SHARED_STATIC_LIBS),y)
LIBMDBX_CONF_OPTS += -DMDBX_BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY=ON
else
LIBMDBX_CONF_OPTS += -DMDBX_BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY=OFF
endif


> +	-DMDBX_BUILD_CXX=$(if $(BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMDBX_CXX),ON,OFF) \
> +	-DMDBX_BUILD_TOOLS=$(if $(BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMDBX_TOOLS),ON,OFF) \
> +	-DMDBX_LINK_TOOLS_NONSTATIC=$(if $(BR2_SHARED_LIBS),ON,OFF)

Ditto here.


However, the bigger problem is that it doesn't build for me. I used the
following defconfig:

BR2_arm=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CUSTOM=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_DOWNLOAD=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_URL="http://autobuild.buildroot.org/toolchains/tarballs/br-arm-full-2020.02.tar.bz2"
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_GCC_5=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_HEADERS_4_14=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LOCALE=y
# BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG is not set
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CXX=y
BR2_INIT_NONE=y
BR2_SYSTEM_BIN_SH_NONE=y
# BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX is not set
BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMDBX=y
BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMDBX_TOOLS=y
BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMDBX_CXX=y
# BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_TAR is not set

And it fails like this:

Some older versions of gcc had an issue with exception_ptr, see
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_GCC_BUG_64735. You might need to depend on
!BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_GCC_BUG_64735. See other packages that have this
dependency in Buildroot.

Thanks!
