Most of the packages that were used by Buildroot to produce the image files,
including Buildroot itself, have open-source licenses. It is your
responsibility to comply to the requirements of these licenses.
To make this easier for you, Buildroot collected in this directory some
material you may need to get it done.
This material is composed of the following items.
* The scripts used to control compilation of the packages and the generation
of image files, i.e. the Buildroot sources.
Note: this has not been saved due to technical limitations, you must
collect it manually.
* The Buildroot configuration file; this has been saved in buildroot.config.
* The toolchain (cross-compiler and related tools) used to generate all the
compiled programs.
Note: this may have not been saved due to technical limitations, you may
need to collect it manually.
* The original source code for target packages in the 'sources/'
subdirectory and for host packages in the 'host-sources/' subdirectory
(except for the non-redistributable packages, which have not been
saved). Patches that were applied are also saved, along with a file
named 'series' that lists the patches in the order they were
applied. Patches are under the same license as the files that they
modify in the original package.
Note: Buildroot applies additional patches to Libtool scripts of
autotools-based packages. These patches can be found under
support/libtool in the Buildroot source and, due to technical
limitations, are not saved with the package sources. You may need
to collect them manually.
* Two manifest files listing the configured packages and related
information: 'manifest.csv' for target packages and 'host-manifest.csv'
for host packages.
* The license text of the packages, in the 'licenses/' and
'host-licenses/' subdirectories for target and host packages
respectively.
