Well, not exactly. Inside the European Union ( 27 European countries)
you can return a product
within two weeks without given a reason for a refund if the product
was bought online.

I wondered if you'd had any response since March on this?

The source bundles as provided by Linitx and LEX Computech are missing key files required to make many of the packages.

So far I've identified the following omissions:

1. IFX custom build scripts in many of the sub-project directories rely on some custom build environment set-up
scripts to define libraries and tools and those set-up scripts are missing:

./../../../../tools/build_tools/Path.sh
./../../../../tools/build_tools/config.sh

Without those I cannot build the same binaries for the device, or even build many of the binaries at all.

2. The source to uClibc is missing. According to the uClibc README it is LGPL licensed. Version 0.9.27 is
used in the pre-built tool-chain.

3. Busybox fails to build since it is missing an Infineon-specific header file "ifx_config.h"

4. The kernel config/build does not build any of the Danube-specific code for this device.

5. The kernel source bundle is targeted for a different product, based on the embedded configuration in the

Yes. Lantiq says they are being completely GPL compliant and the mistake 
is at the vendor, so there is little they can do about this (it is not 
their responsibility, but their customer's).
