[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/4] build: fix failure when host provides too old libfdt

[Philippe Mathieu-Daudé]

Hi, I already hit this problem on Shippable and tried to resolve it for 2.10;
and shamefully hit it again yesterday on a Debian 8 host with distrib libfdt
installed. I wondered how to fix this without root access and realized my
previous Shippable kludge wasn't the best fix :)

Here we go adding the QEMU_LDFLAGS to enforce local libfdt in library path
before the system one.
This time it looks like the correct fix, also scalable for other libraries.

It would be great to have QEMU 2.12 buildable in Debian<9, but nobody
complained since 2.10 so this can wait 2.13 (this is not a regression neither).

Regards,

Phil.
