[OE-core] [RFC][PATCH] tclibc-musl: use musl's virtual/gettext implementation

[Jussi Kukkonen]

$ bitbake -k core-image-minimal core-image-full-cmdline core-image-sato
world
That seems to fail with musl on the autobuilder with "Nothing RPROVIDES
'gettext-runtime' "

https://autobuilder.yocto.io/builders/nightly-musl/builds/313/steps/BuildImages/logs/stdio

Cheers,
Jussi
