Cover letter [Buildroot] [PATCH 0/17 v2] Add new virtual-package infrastructure

Dear Yann E. MORIN,

Quoted 5 lines · Yann E. MORIN

package/libgles: rename the _HAS and _PROVIDES variables package/libegl: rename the _HAS and _PROVIDES variables package/libopenmax: rename the _HAS and _PROVIDES variables package/libopenvg: rename the _HAS and _PROVIDES variables package/luainterpreter: rename the _HAS and _PROVIDES variables

I certainly agree to ensure that the kconfig symbol matches the package name. However, I am not sure the renaming of BR2_PACKAGE_HAS_OPENGL_ES to BR2_PACKAGE_HAS_LIBGLES is really nice. BR2_PACKAGE_HAS_OPENGL_ES had the merit of explicitly containing the word "OpenGL", while LIBGLES makes that a bit more cryptic. Do we want to instead rename the package to libopengl-es or some other variation on this?

A similar reflexion could be made on the naming of the libegl package.

Of course, I'm open to other opinions on this, the above comments are not really a very strong opinion on my side.

My original plan was to apply patches 1 -> 6 of your series in order to remove you a bunch of patches to handle, but I'm not sure about these renames.

Thanks!

Thomas
