Cover letter [Buildroot] [PATCH 0/7] General LTTng packages maintenance
Quoted 11 lines · Thomas Petazzoni

Dear Philippe Proulx,

lttng-libust: rename package to lttng-ust
lttng-babeltrace: rename package to babeltrace

To be honest, I am not sure about those ones. Renaming packages causes backward compatibility problems (that should be handled by adding the relevant entries in Config.in.legacy, which your patches is not doing), so renaming just for the sake of renaming, I'm not sure.

For lttng-libust, I really think it's silly to rename it. Nobody will be
bothered by it.

Babeltrace on the other hand is more defendable. Are there any other packages
that we carry that produces traces that can be read by babeltrace?

Note also that there always has been pushback from Peter against gratuitous
renaming.

Since they lack the Config.in.legacy handling, I'll mark your patches as Changes Requested in our patch tracking system. When you'll resubmit them, I'll try to gather the opinion of other Buildroot developers to see what they think.

Not only legacy handling, but also alphabetical ordering in package/Config.in.

Regards,
Arnout
