The way the compositor was selected in Config.in was counter-intuitive,
because the fbdev backend is selected by default even if a different one
is available.

Instead, select the fbdev backend only if no other one was selected by
the user.

Also re-ordered the compositor options, putting fbdev last. This is more
natural when the user wants to select both backends: after selecting the
RPi backend, the fbdev is automatically unselected but the user can move
one line down to select it again.

Well, that was explictly what I wanted we I did the patch:
  - always have at least one compositor
  - have fbdev enabled by default, even if another one is selected.

But I agree this can be counter-intuitive to some, so I won't bar this
change.

We usually put menu entries in alphabetical order. I understand what
you're trying to achieve here, but I'd prefer we be consistent in the
menu ordering.

Indeed, BR2_PACKAGE_WESTON_NEEDS_ONE_COMPOSITOR is not needed, since we
can re-use BR2_PACKAGE_WESTON for the same purpose.

Except for the re-ordering, no problem for me.

Arnout, All,

I have more wayland/weston changes locally that I'll push over the
course of the WE.

So I'll take patches 1 (without the reordering) and 2 (with the quote
fix) in my branch.

Depending on further discussion on those three patches, I'll grab
whatever we end up settling on.

Thanks you!

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
