Summary: Quotes in the top Makefile:217 break buildroot/kernel
config build under cygwin
Product: buildroot
Version: 2011.02
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: P5
Component: Other
AssignedTo: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org
ReportedBy: os-bugs-qztrsta-uclibc at os-propo.info
CC: buildroot at uclibc.org
Estimated Hours: 0.0

Quotes in the top Makefile:217 break buildroot/kernel config build under cygwin:

HOST_LOADLIBES="-lcurses -lintl"

This results, for instance, in the following command line:

/usr/bin/gcc -I/usr/include/ncurses -DCURSES_LOC="<ncurses.h>" -DLOCALE -DKBUILD_NO_NLS
-I/cygdrive/c/Work/buildroot/buildroot-2011.02/output/build/buildroot-config

/cygdrive/c/Work/buildroot/buildroot-2011.02/output/build/buildroot-config/conf.o

/cygdrive/c/Work/buildroot/buildroot-2011.02/output/build/buildroot-config/zconf.tab.o
"-lcurses -lintl"
-o
/cygdrive/c/Work/buildroot/buildroot-2011.02/output/build/buildroot-config/conf

And "-lcurses -lintl not found" error.

Fix: remove quotes:

HOST_LOADLIBES=-lcurses -lintl

Out of interest, is Buildroot really working for you on Cygwin? I don't recall ever hearing for any other Cygwin users.

Out of interest, is Buildroot really working for you on Cygwin? I don't recall ever hearing for any other Cygwin users.

I am using it on Linux, but parts of software we're deleloping on Windows using MS Visual Studio for emulation win32 project and then cross-compiling the source for the arm target.

So I used buildroot under cygwin to build arm uClibc and C++ cross-toolchain (it works for me few years already). Trying to do this yesterday, it stopped building on busybox. But I just didn't have enough time to see the problem. It doesn't find some headers which are definitely exist (shadow.h).

Will be interesting if I could build whole file system and kernel under cygwin in the end :-) Don't say it is very important for us, but it is at least interesting to try.
