Cover letter [Buildroot] [PATCH v2 0/4] legal-info: save the external-toolchain source archive

Dear Luca Ceresoli,

Quoted 6 lines · Luca Ceresoli

Luca Ceresoli (4):
legal-info: allow to declare the actual sources for binary packages
toolchain-external: mass-define actual source tarball for known
patterns
toolchain-external: define actual sources for arago toolchains docs/manual: document new actual source package variables

All four patches applied, with only the removal of unneeded warning in the first patch.

We noted several things during the review:

* The ifneq ($$($(2)_SITE_METHOD),override) test will always be false because SITE_METHOD is never set to "override". This part of the code should be reworked to simply test $(2)_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR instead:
when empty, it indicates that the packages is neither a "local" site-method package nor a package that has its source directory overridden.

* Maybe the fetching of the "actual source" could be deferred to a separate $(1)-legal-info-source target, to refactor with the existing dependency of $(1)-legal-info on $(1)-source.

Thanks!

Thomas
