This repository contains documentation, tools, and build recipes to create
WPE packages for RPi devices, in the form of directory ready to use with
BR2_EXTERNAL
.
This does not work. It is an abandoned WIP project. If you can figure out how to get it to work, that would be cool.
Chose the appropriate “defconfig” for the target device (see list of included configurations below), and execute the following from the top-level source tree directory:
make rpi3_wpe_pkg_defconfig
make
This will download the needed sources, configure Buildroot, compile WPE, and
produce store the build results under the output/
subdirectory.
To tune your build configuration use:
make menuconfig
Buildroot does not attempt to automatically detect what you have changed on the build config from the previous build. So if you are unsure about what sould be rebuilt after a build config change or how to do that, then trigger a complete new build from a clean state:
make clean && make
rpi2_wpe_pkg_defconfig
