[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] scripts/metadata: Allow to select which profiles to build

Actually I thought of a solution, but it starts to get ugly.  A choice 
submemenu with non-duplicate (i.e. TARGET_SINGLE_...) symbols that also 
select TARGET_SINGLE, AND have all the normal TARGET_... depend on 
!(TARGET_SYMBOL && !TARGET_SINGLE_..profile).

That would probably work, but it's rather ugly IMO.

Regards,

Daniel
