configs/buildroot: set FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIG
Fixes #33 (closed) by setting FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIG
to bypass a check against building as root in the host-tar package, to work around a build failure when using the Docker runtime on macOS.
FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE
only affects the host-tar package. If set when running as root, then the following changes occur:
-
REPLACE_MKNOD
= 1 -
MKNOD_FIFO_BUG
= 1 -
mknod()
will be replaced with a wrapper (see…/buildroot/build/host-tar-1.35/gnu/mknod.c
) that usesmkfifo()
instead ofmknod()
.
Seems like this is a harmless change as it's only affecting the host version of tar. It also looks like the replacement mknod()
is functionally equivalent on Linux.
