Option to copy Linaro gconv libs to target
PATCH 1/1 Option to copy Linaro gconv libs to target
This patch adds an option for external Linaro toolchains which allows buildroot to copy gconv libs to target.
Also exports GCONV_PATH if folder exists on target. That is needed because some programs (eg. XBMC) dont see gconv libs if GCONV_PATH is not exported.

I haven't seen the need to export GCONV_PATH when running my XBMC, neither did Maxime.
What is the reason for exporting GCONV_PATH, if the gconv libs are properly installed in /usr/lib/gconv ?
Is it because Linaro toolchains install them in

PATCH 1/1 Option to copy Linaro gconv libs to target
Hi Yann, all,
if GCONV_PATH is not exported, xbmc doesn't see it and decoding subtitles or whatever which have special characters (eg cp1250) fails. Also, w/o gconv libs XBMC 13.0+ doesn't draw menus etc. I exported GCONV_PATH in xbmc startup script, but I guess exporting it in profile would also work.

And I can assure you that it's nowhere in my env.
I think the problem Stanislav had is that he is using a Linaro toolchain, which puts the gconv module in /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf and so expects them in that location at runtime.
But since Buildroot does not follow the multi-arch convention (and rightfully, IMHO), it does not work for Stanislav.
I'm not very happy with the exporting of GCONV_PATH as-is. I'd prefer we find another solution. I'll look into that.

Yann E. MORIN.

This will only work for programs started from a login shell. Programs that are started /automatically/ (eg. by startup scripts, like we do for XBMC) will not have that variable in their environment, so will still fail to find the gconv libs.
I've looked at the glibc source code, and besides the GCONV_PATH solution, I can't see another wayt to tell where to look for the gconv libs.
All this multi-arch stuff is so utterly broken, and there is not even a real use-case for it. Not even a Debian developper I talked to, which was involved in the mess, was able to explain what the reason was, that was not already covered by existing mechanisms. That's a shame...
I still have to look if it is possible to pass an alternative path to the dynamic linker in one of its config files...
Sigh...

All this multi-arch stuff is so utterly broken, and there is not even a real use-case for it. Not even a Debian developper I talked to, which was involved in the mess, was able to explain what the reason was, that was not already covered by existing mechanisms. That's a shame...

You mean this sort of c...?

Only one (the last) of the sixteen is where I told the loader to look. Sure am glad that someone thinks they know better than I where I put libc.
