Hi,

can someone give me a hint how to add a different glibc as a package which will be copied into the rootfs instead of the
glibc which is part of the toolchain?

Regards
Tobias

Why would you want to do this?

In any case, you can customize whatever is in your root filesystem by creating a post-build script.

Best regards,

Hello Thomas,

i just want to replace the glibc on an old embedded system with glibc 2.23 without rebuilding it completely.
Just wanted to find a simple way to do this for someone who cannot crosscompile glibc without
a tool like buildroot.

Regards
Tobias
