Could you define "some" by giving some examples of package that will
need that?

When possible, we try to avoid having "orphan" host packages, i.e host
packages whose build cannot be triggered at all because no other
packages depend on them.

Best regards,

Thomas

None present on buildroot now, only in my user packages. They are LV2
plugins, one I remind now is ZynAddSubFX (
http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net/).

Because there is no way to apply patch to global packages (according irc
response) on buildroot I'm seding the patch as it was recommended on
buildroot irc channel.

Regards,
Ricardo.

OK. Then I think it's better if you submit this patch adding the host
variant of mxml together with the submission of those additional
packages that need it.

Thanks!
