Details - Newer releases of the LEDE SDK no longer include compile time dependencies like pkg-config files or headers for packages.  So, if I want to compile my package that depends on say "glib2" I have to recompile glib2 and all of it's dependencies with the SDK.  This is a pretty big waste of time as all the binary artifacts have already been built as part of the overall build process.  When did this change?  It worked fine in OpenWRT?
