[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/1] python-pylibftdi new package

[Christian Kellermann <christian.kellermann@solectrix.de>]

Dear List,

This patch adds the python binding for libftdi. However it contains a
hackish patch which I would like to discuss. Pylibftdi uses the ctypes
find_library call to find the libusb and libftdi libraries. This in
turn seems to rely on ldconfig which is not part of buildroot.

Patching it out here seems to work fine, but this kind of hides the
general problem of fixing find_library in the python package. How
would one do this properly?

Thanks,

Christian
