[ptxdist] host-libcap dependency on host-gperf

[ptxdist] host-libcap dependency on host-gperf

[Clemens Gruber]

Hi,

I noticed that the host-libcap package fails to build if host-gperf has
not been built yet.
There are two possible solutions:
1) Add a dependency to host-gperf (select HOST_GPERF in host-libcap.in?)
2) Add BUILD_GPERF=no to host-libcap's MAKE_OPTS.

First I tried 1 but this does not seem to pull in host-gperf before
building host-libcap. Is something like depends on HOST_GPERF necessary?

Thanks,
Clemens

From what I can tell, using gperf is just an optimization. So I think we
can use '2)' for host-libcap and '1)' for libcap.

'select HOST_GPERF' should work. Did you run 'ptxdist oldconfig'
afterwards? You can also check the generated dependencies:

$ grep host-libcap platform-*/state/ptx_dgen_deps.post

You should see the deps on host-gperf here.
