2 # Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility
4 # When an existing Config.in symbol is removed, it should be added again in
5 # this file, and take appropriate action to approximate backward compatibility.
6 # This will make the transition for the user more convenient.
8 # When adding legacy symbols to this file, add them to the front. The oldest
9 # symbols will be removed again after about two years.
11 # The symbol should be copied as-is from the place where it was previously
12 # defined, but the help text should be removed or replaced with something that
13 # explains how to fix it.
15 # For bool options, the old symbol should select BR2_LEGACY, so that the user
16 # is informed at build-time about selected legacy options.
17 # If there is an equivalent (set of) new symbols, these should be select'ed by
18 # the old symbol for backwards compatibility.
20 # For string options, it is not possible to directly select another symbol. In
21 # this case, a hidden wrap bool option has to be added, that defaults to y if
22 # the old string is not set at its default value. The wrap symbol should select
24 # If the original symbol has been renamed, the new symbol should use the value
25 # of the old symbol as default. This requires a change outside of
26 # Config.in.legacy, and this should be clearly marked as such below, so that
27 # removal of legacy options also include the removal of these external
30 # [Example: renaming a string option from FOO to BAR]
32 # config BR2_FOO_STRING
33 # string "Some foo string"
36 # config BR2_BAR_STRING
37 # string "Some bar string"
38 # default BR2_FOO_STRING if BR2_FOO_STRING != "" # legacy
40 # and in Config.in.legacy:
41 # config BR2_FOO_STRING
42 # string "The foo string has been renamed"
44 # <suitable help text>
46 # config BR2_FOO_STRING_WRAP
48 # default y if BR2_FOO_STRING != ""

1520 The BR2_PACKAGE_LVM2_DMSETUP_ONLY was a negative option, which
1521 led to problems with other packages that need the full lvm2
1522 suite. Therefore, the option has been replaced with the positive

1532 The BR2_PACKAGE_QT_JAVASCRIPTCORE option was available to
1533 force the activation or disabling of the JIT compiler in the
1534 Qt Javascript interpreter. However, the JIT compiler is not
1535 available for all architectures, so forcing its activation
1536 does not always work. Moreover, Qt knows by itself for which
1537 architectures JIT support is possible, and will
1538 automatically enable it if possible.
1540 Therefore, this option was in fact useless, and causing
1541 build problems when enabled on architectures for which the
1542 JIT support was not available. It has been removed, and
1543 there is no replacement: Qt will enable JIT at compile time

1617 bool "ARM OABI support has been removed"
1620 The support for the ARM OABI was deprecated since a while,
1621 and has been removed completely from Buildroot. It is also
1622 deprecated in upstream gcc, since gcc 4.7. People should
1623 switch to EABI instead, which should not be a problem as
