Hello,

I think you are making a confusion here between the "local" site method
implemented in this patch and the "file" site method that you
implemented in the past, and which is part of this patch set, in a
different patch.
The "file" site method simply allows to say that the package tarball is
present locally in the system. But except the download step, all the
other package construction steps are similar: extraction, patching, etc.
The "local" site method tells Buildroot that the package source code is
already available is some *directory*. Using the "local" site method
completely skips the download, extraction and patching steps of the
package construction process, which directly starts by the
configuration step.
So, "file" and "local" are two very different things.
Regards,
Thomas
