Description davorin.ucakar 2023-09-28 09:29:39 UTC
Connman is not supported on musl libc because `res_ninit` is missing. Alpine[1] & OE/Yocto[2] have patches for this:

[1] https://git.alpinelinux.org/aports/tree/community/connman/libresolv.patch
[2] https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/tree/meta/recipes-connectivity/connman/connman/0002-resolve-musl-does-not-implement-res_ninit.patch

Hello,

We don't like to carry feature patches in Buildroot. Can you please work with connman upstream to get that feature merged, then we can drop the !musl dependency next time the version is bumped?

Thanks.
