I'm sorry, but this patch is far, far from being ready. To be honest, I
am not even sure you even tested it considering the numerous issues I
found. See below.

The -L/usr/lib is quite certainly the thing to remove. So should
-L$(prefix)/lib, as prefix=/usr, so it would become -L/usr/lib as well.
Please fix this globally.

We normally write such conditions as:

There is no such package in Buildroot.

The package also needs sqlite, as can be seen in its configure script:
AC_CHECK_LIB([sqlite3], [sqlite3_open], [], [echo "libsqlite3 is missing!";exit -1])
Thread support is also needed, as can be seen in the configure script:
AC_CHECK_LIB([pthread], [pthread_create], [], [echo "libpthread is missing!";exit -1])

All those checks are useless, we now Buildroot will have installed
those binaries.

Please use start-stop-daemon instead of this code.

Use start-stop-daemon, and remove kill_running_processes.

VIEW_DEPENDENCIES is never taken into account since the variable prefix
is not correct. This very mistake is a good indication that you have
never built this package. Whenever you submit a new package in
Buildroot, please at least make sure that it builds fine in a
configuration that has *only* this package selected in menuconfig, and
that a build from scratch of this configuration works fine.
radlib doesn't exist in Buildroot.
You have "mysql" in this variable, but it is not selected in the
Config.in file. Plus, I don't see any mysql use in the source code
itself.
You need to add sqlite in there.

There is no --enable-mysql configuration option.
Passing --prefix=$(STAGING_DIR)/usr is completely wrong. Leave --prefix
to its default value. If the program doesn't build with --prefix=/usr,
then something else is broken in the package Makefiles, and passing a
different --prefix is 1/ papering over the problem and 2/ potentially
harmful.
Hint: the problem is at least the -L$(prefix)/lib in the Makefile.am,
as pointed above.
I've marked the patch as Changes Requested. Please resubmit a new
version addressing the above issues. Thanks!
