Missed one merge fix. In the current tree, make defconfig no longer works.

Thanks for the hint. Merged as r18968. Thanks!

Cheers,

Sorry, missed that one.

Was the provided patch file incorrect for buildroot specific changes?

If you touch package/config/*, then please make a clean copy of the
pristine thing from the kernel (e.g. from 2.6.21.5) and incooperate
buildroot specific changes which you keep as a .diff in that very same
directory, along the patched source.

See?

It is not worthwhile to hack the old version that we currently use. It
works, but if you touch it, you're better off to update it before doing
anything else.

thanks,

Watching all the warnings on package/config finally got to me.

A patch that clears the gcc warnings from config with cast changes only.

thanks, I feel better now,

:)

A few days ago, i said:
i wouldn't mind if we would pull the lxdialog from the current kernel,
fwiw. patches welcome
Lta, if you do this, please also provide a diff with the buildroot
specific changes, so we can easily pull upstream changes
