Let e2fsprogs headers to be copied in staging dir if needed

Hi,

as, specificed in bug #529, e2fsprogs package actually doesn't copy headers into staging dir so util-linux doesn't compile complaining about missing blkid/blkid/.h

The attached patch add support exporting only headers to staging dir

What about the corresponding libraries like libklkid? There also needs to be a configuration setting to enable/disable this target.

This patch just add headers export to staging dir, not liblkid library support ... but yes, can be useful have the ability to put this library into the target.

I made this modification to fix compilation of util-linux, he need only the header, not the library (however i didn't tested the resulting binary because i'm having problem to get a working initrd for my rootfs)

Here util-linux builds just fine. Could you post a non-working .config ?

Comment 4 Thomas Petazzoni 2011-09-18 14:13:21 UTC

libblkid is now part of util-linux, and both e2fsprogs and util-linux have been reworked significantly since the bump of util-linux to 2.19.x. So, I strongly suspect that the bug no longer exists.
