In the Config.in file of package foo, it often happens that there are other
symbols besides BR2_PACKAGE_FOO. Typically, these symbols only make sense
when foo itself is enabled. There are two ways to express this: with
depends on BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
in each extra symbol, or with
if BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
...
endif
around the entire set of extra symbols.
The if/endif approach avoids the repetition of 'depends on' statements on
multiple symbols, so this is clearly preferred. But even when there is only
one extra symbol, if/endif is a more logical choice:
- it is future-proof for when extra symbols are added
- it allows to have just one strategy instead of two (less confusion)
This patch modifies the Config.in files accordingly.

There is no real reason to keep copyright notices in just four
packages, while none of the other packages have such copyright
notices.
The license is already clearly announced by the COPYING file in the
top Buildroot source directory. The authors are clearly credited
through the Git history of the project.

Thanks to the pkgparentdir and pkgname functions, we can rewrite the
AUTOTARGETS macro in a way that avoids the need for each package to
repeat its name and the directory in which it is present.

dhcpdump 1.7 required tcpdump, but version 1.8 now uses libpcap
instead. Also version 1.8 is no longer autotools based, but just a
simple Makefile.

For some reason, tcpdump and libpcap need to have some information
about the kernel version being used. This information is passed using
the ac_cv_linux_vers autoconf variable.
However, the current value is determined using
BR2_DEFAULT_KERNEL_HEADERS which is only defined when an internal
Buildroot toolchain is used. So it would break with an external
toolchain or the Crosstool-NG backend.
According to Mike Frysinger at
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2011-January/040861.html,
this value is only used to determine if the kernel version is 0.x, 1.x
or 2.x, so passing ac_cv_linux_vers=2 is sufficient since Buildroot
only supports the 2.6 kernel anyway.

The tcpdump package likes to install two binaries into /usr/sbin --
one named "tcpdump" and one named "tcpdump.<ver>". But it does this
by installing the file twice rather than using links. Since the alt
name is useless to us, just punt it.

Now that <pkg>_INSTALL_TARGET_OPT always defaults to
'DESTDIR=$(TARGET_DIR) install', we can remove the

Now that TARGET_CC contains several space-separated words, it must be

We have been passing -q to ./configure when using 'make -s' for
packages using Makefile.autotools.in for some time. Do the same
for packages using autotools, but not using the
Makefile.autotools.in infrastructure, taking care to not do it
for packages with hand written configure scripts.

A C library will have been built by the toolchain makefiles, so there is no
need for packages to explicitly depend on uclibc.

they should be configured with --prefix=/usr and we then need to use
make DESTDIR=$(STAGING_DIR) install to get things installed into the
staging directory. The current situation for many packages, which use
--prefix=$(STAGING_DIR) results in the staging_dir paths getting compiled
into the binary itself.
This also adds in a pile of libtool fixups. Between broken pkgconfig,
broken libtool handling, and broken --prefix settings, its a wonder
things have worked as well as they have up till now.
