Hi,
In the older buildroot releases one could force a reintegration of a skeleton overlay with various hacks like removing the .root file in build, are there any equivalents in Buildroot-2017.02-4. I understand this is not best practice but I have some quick prototyping to do and the build time is an issue.
Regards
JohnOS

$ make skeleton-rebuild
should do the trick in Buildroot 2017.02. Starting with 2017.08, this
won't work as the skeleton has been split into several packages.
However, you should stop using a custom skeleton, and use a root
filesystem overlay instead (perhaps with a post build script). Why do
you still use a custom skeleton ?
Best regards,
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the reply, we use it largely for historical reasons, I will check out the root filesystem overlay as you suggest
Regards
John
