config FORCE_DOWNLOAD
    bool
    prompt "Force downloads"
    default n
    help
      Force downloading tarballs, even if one already exists.
      
      Usefull if you suspect a tarball to be damaged.

config ONLY_DOWNLOAD
    bool
    prompt "Stop after downloading tarballs"
    default n
    help
      Only download the tarballs. Exit once it done.
      
      Usefull to pre-retrieve the tarballs before going off-line.

config CONNECT_TIMEOUT
    int
    prompt "connection timeout"
    default 10
    help
      From the curl manual:
        Maximum time in seconds that you allow the connection to the server to take.

      The scenario is as follows;
        - some enterprise networks have firewalls that prohibit FTP traffic, while
          still allowing HTTP
        - most download sites have http:// equivalent for the ftp:// URL
        - after this number of seconds, it is considered that the connection could
          not be established, and the next URL in the list is tried, until we reach
          an URL that will go through the firewall, most probably an http:// URL.

      If you have a slow network, you'd better set this value higher than the default
      10s. If you know a firewall is blocking connections, but your network is globally
      fast, you can try to lower this value to jump more quickly to allowed URLs. YMMV.

      Note that this value applies equally to wget if you have that installed.

      Of course, you'd be better off to use a proxy, as offered by the following
      choice of options.

choice
    bool
    prompt "Proxy type"
    default PROXY_TYPE_NONE

config PROXY_TYPE_NONE
    bool
    prompt "No proxy"
    help
      Select this option if you have a direct connection to the internet,
      or if you already set the environment adequately.

config PROXY_TYPE_HTTP
    bool
    prompt "HTTP proxy"
    help
      Use an HTTP proxy to connect to to the internet.
      Only the http and ftp protocols will be tunneled through this
      proxy.

      Alternatively to setting this option, you can set and export the
      following variables in your environment:
        ftp_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
        http_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/
        https_proxy=http://user:passwd@proxy.server:port/

# Haha! Here is an interesting feature/bug of mconf!
# The following config entries will be shown out-side the
# choice menu!
# To add a third entry in the choice menu, add it after the
# if...endif conditional below, and so on for a fourth entry...

endif # USE_HTTP_PROXY

config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS
    bool
    prompt "SOCKS 4/5 proxy (EXPERIMENTAL)"
    depends on EXPERIMENTAL
    help
      Use a Socks 4/5 proxy to connect to the internet.
      All protocols can get tunneled through this kind of proxy (depending
      on your proxy configuration, some do not allow all protocols, but
      chances are that protocols needed by crosstool-NG are allowed).

      Alternatively to setting this option, you can configure tsocks
      system-wide, and set and export the following variable in your
      environment:
        LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/your/tsocks-library.so

      This option makes use of the tsocks library. You will have to have tsocks
      installed on your system, of course.

      If you think you do not know what tsocks is, or how to configure it,
      chances are that you do not need to set this option.

      Use that if tsocks is already configured on your system.

config PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS_AUTO

      crosstool-NG will attempt to guess what type of SOCKS version
      the proxy speaks.

comment "Extracting"

config FORCE_EXTRACT
    bool
    prompt "Force extractions"
    default n
    help
      Force extraction of already exctracted tarballs.
      
      Usefull if you suspect a previous extract did not complete (eg. broken
      tarball), or you added a new set of patches for this component.

config OVERIDE_CONFIG_GUESS_SUB
    bool
    prompt "Override config.{guess,sub}"
    default y
    help
      Override tools' versions of config.guess and config.sub with the ones
      from crosstool-NG. This means that all instances of config.guess and
      config.sub in gcc, binutils, glibc, etc... will be replaced.

      Most of the time, the versions of those scripts found in packages are old
      versions, thus lacking some target definitions. This is the case for
      uClibc-based tuples in old versions of gcc and gdb, for example.

      Also, doing so will guarantee that all components have the same tuples
      definitions for your target, and not diverging ones.

      You can update the ones provided with crosstool-NG by first running:
        ct-ng updatetools
      in the directory where you want to run crosstool-NG prior to the build.

config ONLY_EXTRACT
    bool
    prompt "Stop after extracting tarballs"
    default n
    help
      Exit after unpacking and patching tarballs.
      
      Usefull to look at the code before doing the build itself.
