PATCH 1/1 package/firejail: mark as broken

The firejail package does not cross-compile at all, because it is not using automake, but a hand-written Makefile.in. So it does not use the cross-compiler found by ./configure.

But when we fix it by passing:

    FIREJAIL_MAKE_ENV = $(TARGET_CONFIGURE_OPTS)

it then fails to build with symbols redefinitions:

/home/ymorin/dev/buildroot/O/host/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -Os -ggdb -O2 -DVERSION='"0.9.44.8"' -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fPIC -Wformat -Wformat-security -c libtrace.c -o libtrace.o /tmpfs/cckgOLVz.s: Assembler messages:
/tmpfs/cckgOLVz.s:1115: Error: symbol `stat64' is already defined
/tmpfs/cckgOLVz.s:1282: Error: symbol `lstat64' is already defined
/tmpfs/cckgOLVz.s:2296: Error: symbol `fopen64' is already defined
/tmpfs/cckgOLVz.s:2631: Error: symbol `freopen64' is already defined
Makefile:16: recipe for target 'libtrace.o' failed

(ditto for libtracelog)

Fixing this is not trivial, so we just mark the package as broken.

If the package is not fixed before 2017.05-rc1, we will remove it altogether (as it was never part of an official release so far).

Applied to master, after adding "depends on BROKEN" also on the Config.in comment, to avoid having it showing up even with the package itself being broken.

Thanks!

Hi,

what about removing the package on master branch before releasing 2017.05?
FYI: version 0.9.46 still has no cross-compile support.
