Summary

0000937: Trouble adding buildfile for Matchbox

Description

I am trying to add a configuration for matchbox. I was only able to find old configurations from back when Matchbox was a monolithic application. Since this is my first additional application, I thought I would start with just making libmb build and install, then add the other packages one at a time. I followed the instructions at: http://buildroot.uclibc.org/buildroot.html [^]

I created a directory: package/libmb/

I then created the Config.in and libmb.mk (attached).
I then tried to do a make menuconfig from the base directory. libmb did not appear in the menu. After poking around a little, I found the piece missing out of the documentation: packages/Config.in needs updating [this needs fixed in the docs]

After fixing the config file, I tried make menuconfig again, success! It now appeared in the menu. I selected it for build, then debugged my makefile to eliminate any typos. The system now compiles, but does not include libmb in the build... No errors, it just ignores it. Is there something wrong with my Config.in or libmb.mk files?
