Now, the variables that define what should be performed at the

different steps of the build process.



* +LIBFOO_EXTRACT_CMDS+ lists the actions to be performed to extract

  the package. This is generally not needed as tarballs are

  automatically handled by Buildroot. However, if the package uses a

  non-standard archive format, such as a ZIP or RAR file, or has a

  tarball with a non-standard organization, this variable allows to

  override the package infrastructure default behavior.



* +LIBFOO_CONFIGURE_CMDS+ lists the actions to be performed to

  configure the package before its compilation.
