Subject: Makefile: fix build if CDPATH is set in environment
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f7a501e13ccf76814743ea7a5b46606762505c34;p=buildroot.git

Makefile: fix build if CDPATH is set in environment

Reported by Bjørn Forsman <bjorn.forsman@gmail.com>.

If CDPATH is set in the environment, cd <dir> will print the absolute path
of <dir>, causing various trouble (The most critical being BASE_DIR ending
up as <path> <path> which breaks basically everything).

Fix it by clearing CDPATH. Notice that export doesn't affect the environment
of $(shell ..) calls, so explicitly throw away any output from cd in the
BASE_DIR shell call.
