# "The -j (parallel) flag must not be used with make"
Buildroot currently ships a very minimal build configuration file for exim, which disables most optional features. This is not coherent with the runtime configuration file, taken verbatim from the exim distribution, which enables some of these features. The visible symptom is an error during boot that prevents exim from starting: Exim configuration error in line 541 of /etc/exim/configure: router dnslookup: cannot find router driver "dnslookup" In order to fix this problem, we change the way exim is configured at build time. Instead of blindly copying a minimal Buildroot-provided configuration file, we now copy the exim-provided one and then tweak it to change the needed options. This actually makes the configuration closer to standard exim. As the amount of tweaking is remarkable, we also define a few macros to make it easier and more readable. This new approach was suggested by Bernd Kuhls. Reported-By: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Luca Ceresoli <luca@lucaceresoli.net> Cc: Bernd Kuhls <bernd.kuhls@t-online.de> --- Note: although this patch fixes a problem and cleans up things, I am not totally satisfied with it. It enables many optional features that are not enabled in products where I use exim. If I used this version of the exim package the executable would become larger without any advantage for my use case. So I will consider producing a follow-up patch in the future to allow (de)activating some options via kconfig. This is in line with previous discussion with Bernd, and I would appreciate his comments on this proposal. Nevertheless I'm sending this patch right now because it fixes a problem, and it's IMO an overall improvement. --- package/exim/exim.mk | 43 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 35 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-)
