  1. --- HOWTO ---
  2. If your package uses config.guess and/or config.sub, then it probably
  3. relies on the autotools as its build system. In this case, you should
  4. use the autotools-package infrastructure, which will take care of updating
  5. the config.guess and/or config.sub files appropriately. See the
  6. Buildroot documentation for details about the autotools-package
  7. infrastructure.
  8. If for some reason your package does not use the autotools-package
  9. infrastructure, you can request the config.guess and/or config.sub
  10. files of your package to be updated by using:
  11. $(call CONFIG_UPDATE,directory-of-your-package-sources)
  12. --- UPDATE ---
  13. GNU config is now managed in git, so to update:
  14. # git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/config.git
  15. # cp config/config.* .
  16. # for p in $(ls patches/*.patch); do patch -p1 < $p; done
  17. # rm -rf config
  18. Currently no patches are needed, but they may be needed again in the
  19. future.
  20. The current Buildroot version is based on the Git commit
  21. dafd8e767ec87b90aac62f0fcedd11944c84b50a of the config.git repository.
