Add NetworkManager to Buildroot configuration

root file system
Description
NetworkManager is available from Buildroot but requires the following features in the toolchain:
IPV6
LARGEFILE
WCHAR
Verify (or add) these in the Crosstool-NG configuration, then add NetworkManager to Buildroot config.
WCHAR is already configured in Crosstool-NG.
LARGEFILE is already configured in the uClibc config used by Crosstool-NG.
IPV5 is not enabled in uClibc. I've updated the config and have started a build of the toolcahin.
IPV6 was added to the toolchain, but NetworkManager also requires udev instead of mdev.
So a switch to udev is required now. That will be tracked separately.
Enabled IPV6 support in uClibc configuration.
- Status changed from In Progress to Closed
NetworkManager was dropped in favor of connman, a lightweight alternative specifically for embedded platforms.
Connman is enabled and running in the current builds. This issue can therefore be closed.
