Doesn't use LD anymore, so that works now! Thank you for fixing it! :-)

Also thank you for the hint regarding gitlab, didn't knew that until now. Still got a lot to learn! :)

The other issue regarding libtools; I guess it is coming from python3/python2 conflicts... I will try to remove python2 entirely from our buildroot and than just stick to python3. That for I am updating buildroot (from 2019.02 to 2020.05) as whole. I will post it here once I am far enough to run into that python error again or if it works all of a sudden. (If luck is on my side tomorrow)

Still sharing the log of the compiled gpsd until the libtool does odd things, may someone got another idea what could cause the error! (check gpsd_compile.log)
Its obvious that the path is the issue. I just cannot tell yet where it is setting this path falsely. "/home/asterix/buildroot/buildroot-2019.02.8.1/output/host/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabihf/sysroot//home/asterix/buildroot/buildroot-2019.02.8.1/output" supposed to be split to 2 variables (staging_dir and output_dir). Either way it happens to multiple packages, since I am messing around with python3, so gpsd might be innocent here...

Also the gpsd.mk if you wanna know what exactly is beeing done. (Its the default one from the buildroot-2020.05 just with an edited version)
