I'm working in a project that uses buildroot-2012.11 to generate a Linux image for an embedded system.
I need to configure openocd for a JTAG debugger that uses an FTDI chip (FT2232D).
I realized that this buildroot version integrate openocd-0.5.0 and the latest openocd release is 0.9.0. I'm interested in updating to this version since I want to use ftdi interface driver instead of ft2232 (deprecated).
I tried to accomplish that by modifying /package/openocd/openocd.mk on the lines:
OPENOCD_VERSION:=0.9.0
OPENOCD_CONF_OPT += --enable-ftdi
The new openocd files where downloaded successfully but when it tries to install it and apply openocd-0001-fix-cross-compilation-host-libsub-was-used-before.patch I got:
Applying openocd-0001-fix-cross-compilation-host-libsub-was-used-before.patch using patch:
can't find file to patch at input line 17
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

If I skipped the patch the building process stop and I'm not able to generate the images.
I've doing some research on the internet and I couldn't find how to do this correctly.
Maybe one obvious solution could be updating the buildroot version but since there is a lot of other people development with the current version I'm not in a position of taking that decision right now.
I'll do appreciate any help.
