tools/xz: Compile with PIC to fix linking errors I made a similar change to this here: https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/8159 However, it turns out this did not fix the problem as the problem has to do with tools/xz and not the xz package. The error is the same and causes linking errors as can be seen above. Signed-off-by: Rosen Penev <rosenp@gmail.com>
tools: xz: use .bz2 archive In order to build XZ itself we cannot assume that XZ support is available, so fetch the bz2 archive variant of its sources instead. Also drop the FreeBSD portability patch and apply it at prepare time using sed, to avoid a dependency on GNU patch which in turn depends on XZ support. Signed-off-by: Jo-Philipp Wich <jo@mein.io>
source: Switch to xz for packages and tools where possible * Change git packages to xz * Update mirror checksums in packages where they are used * Change a few source tarballs to xz if available upstream * Remove unused lines in packages we're touching, requested by jow- and blogic * We're relying more on xz-utils so add official mirror as primary source, master site as secondary. * Add SHA256 checksums to multiple git tarball packages Signed-off-by: Daniel Engberg <daniel.engberg.lists@pyret.net>
