The main reason to build from source is so you can alter build-time options that the official pre-compiled packages don't offer. I rely on more features in busybox for example, so a source-build is required in many of my images to avoid pulling in the "full" version of functionality I can get away with busybox versions of.
<pekster>
Without such exotic needs, it's both more time and more fragile to build from source (more to go wrong, like feeds of packages & libraries being down and preventing an update when required.)

i'm confused as to why (only) the openssh-*server* has a dependency to libfido2 if built with fido support. no other distribution's package containing the sshd links against libfido2 and still claims fido support

(08:04:54 PM) damo22: Uncompressing Kernel Image ... LZMA ERROR 1 - must RESET board to recover
<damo22>
what did i do wrong?
<damo22>
trying to tftpboot an initramfs kernel image
<damo22>
could it be that the uboot on the board does not like the compression mechanism used in the new image?
<damo22>
do i need $(Device/uimage-lzma-loader)

damo22: how is your uboot configured?
<DSchndr_>
ree, how do i get the stupid mt76 drivers in my snapshot build - 404 documentation xD

Just select the required kmod via menuconfig

<DSchndr_>
xaxaxa, they do not show up in the menuconfig for the mt76x8 target - else i wouldn't ask
<robimarko>
Hm, they dont show under Kernel Modules->Wireless Drivers?
<robimarko>
Cause, they should show for any target, I even see them under qualcommax
<DSchndr_>
the dtb and .mk config are pretty much similair to the rest of the devices
<robimarko>
I did not ask that
<DSchndr_>
yep, just looked it up
<DSchndr_>
when i change the target to a completely different one they do show up
<DSchndr_>
tf
<robimarko>
Well, mt76 only depends on PCI_SUPPORT
<robimarko>
And mt76x8 sets CONFIG_PCI so for buildroot that sets PCI_SUPPORT
<robimarko>
Can you run make menuconfig
<robimarko>
And then SHIFT+7
<robimarko>
Then search for CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-mt76
<robimarko>
It will tell you what it depends on and whether that is satisfied
<mirko>
`grep -inE "(mt76\)|/mt76/)" tmp/.packagedeps` might be interesting
<DSchndr_>
ouuuh, thanks for the tip
<DSchndr_>
how lucky can you be to pick out exactly those devices which do not have it in their dtb and wonder why it does not work xD
<DSchndr_>
but i think that issue might cause other devices to have no wifi since they only have wmac defined in their dtb and pcie is disabled in the mt7628an.dtsi

DSchndr_: am i building uboot with openwrt ? i thought the boot partition is readonly and is not altered from the vendor
<damo22>
my board is also mt76x8

robimarko: will dig into it later (currently the insomnia and ad withdrawl kicks in too hard xD), i tried to enable pci but no change - at least the rest of my owrt port works ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
<DSchndr_>
damo22: how big is the vendor kernel image vs yours? how old is the vendor uboot? i had that stupid issue but solved it by just building a recent uboot with increased size for kernel decompression (cant remember how that option was called rn)
<DSchndr_>
get a ch341 programmer and make a backup of the flash, then you can play around trying to get it to run without worries.
