Since the 2011.11 release Buildroot has supported building packages from local sources, but the manual has not reflected this well. This series is an attempt to address that. I relied on Thomas Petazzoni's description of the "file" and "local" methods here:

http://free-electrons.com/blog/buildroot-2011-11/

Nathan Lynch (3):
docs: update LIBFOO_SITE to describe use of filesystem paths
docs: rework LIBFOO_SITE_METHOD documentation
docs: describe "file" and "local" methods in LIBFOO_SITE_METHOD

for the three patches.

I would like to see documentation updates get merged more easily. It's likely
they create conflicts with other documentation updates, so other documentation updates are basically stalled until they are merged. And the risk of breaking things is rather small.

Arnout
