[ptxdist] Kernel dependency from bc

[ptxdist] Kernel dependency from bc

[Markus Niebel]

Hello,

since kernel 3.10 (afaik) bc is needed to build the kernel. Should we
add something like a host-system-bc package which notifies the user that
he needs to install bc on his box?

Thanks

Markus

I think that would be best. Can you make a patch for this?

Hello,

I tried it with generation a host-system-bc, but this was never
triggered when selectin it from platform/kernel.in. Have I made a
mistake or should I better implement a real host-bc package, so that bc
gets installed in the host sysroot?

Thanks

Markus

If you select it from platform/kernel.in, make sure it has the correct
sections (for ptxconfig and platformconfig):

## SECTION=hosttools_noprompt
## SECTION=hosttools_platform

Just saw you other mails. You have the correct sections there. Are you
saying, that the same thing doesn't work for a host-system-bc?
Can you send me the rule that doesn't work?
