Re: [Ltib] Porting asterisk to ltib

[Stuart Hughes]

Hi Vadim,

Both these are set as environment variables inside the ltib script.

SCB_WANT_CF is set when you pass the option -c (--configure) to ltib.
PKG_BUSYBOX_WANT_CF is set when the corresponding option is turn on
during a configuration session in ltib:

$ ./ltib -m config
[ ]   Configure busybox at build time

This prompt is set in config/userspace/packages.lkc:

config PKG_BUSYBOX_WANT_CF
    depends PKG_BUSYBOX
    bool "Configure busybox at build time"
    help
      Select this if you want to interactively configure busybox during
      the build.  A copy of the configured value will be put back
      into the platforms configuration directory, with the suffix .dev


Note that -c is available so that you can do:

$ ./ltib -p <pkg> -c

This lets you drop to the config screen in your package without having
to fiddle with the main config.

Regards, Stuart
