[Buildroot] Failing gst1-validate-1.12.2 build, documentation not necessary!

In building gst1-validate-1.12.2. 


I think building "all" here is not necessary. Can't see the documentation is ever going to be installed on a target.
So why build it at all, especially when it fails!

The problem seems you are one of the rare people who have a (non functional) sphinx documentation
system installed on the build host....

Mind to try the following (untested) patch:

diff --git a/package/gstreamer1/gst1-validate/gst1-validate.mk b/package/gstreamer1/gst1-validate/gst1-validate.mk
index be43df4f..5066c277 100644
--- a/package/gstreamer1/gst1-validate/gst1-validate.mk
+++ b/package/gstreamer1/gst1-validate/gst1-validate.mk
@@ -18,4 +18,6 @@ GST1_VALIDATE_DEPENDENCIES = \
        python \
        $(if $(BR2_PACKAGE_CAIRO),cairo)
 
+GST1_VALIDATE_CONF_ENV = ac_cv_prog_enable_sphinx_doc=no
+
 $(eval $(autotools-package))


Regards,
Peter

[Buildroot] Failing gst1-validate-1.12.2 build, documentation not necessary!

G'day Peter,


Gave your patch a test and works as expected.
Thanks muchly!


It does appear there was no sphinx documentation system installed with python


Did not realise there was even an option.


So this maybe a useful patch for those systems that do not have this utility available.


Not sure how rare a case this is, but it caught me out.


Thanking you,


Ross
