	issues with certain tests running out of memory.

	test-pkg: Correct long option handling and clean output dir
	after a successful build to save disk space.

	Ensure custom <pkg>_OVERRIDE_SRCDIR_RSYNC_EXCLUSIONS are

	not just when not available on the build host.

	forward {f,l,}chown calls to libc when running under fakeroot
	to fix issues when building in restricted environments
	(E.G. user namespace with bubblewrap).

	like the gdb scripts enabled by CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS are also
	built. Notice: This may mean that extra host utilities like
	uboot-mkimage are needed.

2019.02-rc1, released February 13th, 2019

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.


	Dependencies:

	Require Python >= 2.7 as it is needed for E.G. building
	libglib2.

	Ensure GNU gzip is used for reproducible tarballs (instead of
	pigz)


	Infrastucture:

	Ensure the PLATFORM and OS environment variables are not set,
	as they cause build issues for some packages.

	The package list infrastructure now correctly handles packages
	installing files with old mtime.

	Add a config option to force all optional host utilities to be
	built, even if suitable versions are available on the build
	machine.

	graph-build-time: Also show time spent downloading

	Download: fixes for SSH/SCP support

	Ensure user provided permissions override permissions from
	packages.

	can now be used with a custom skeleton.

	Rootfs overlays can now override symbolic links from
	packages. This was disabled to ensure the correct symbolic
	links are present when merged /usr is used. Instead validate
	that the rootfs overlays do not include invalid /bin, /sbin
	and /lib entries.

	The waf infrastructure now support the <pkg>_SUBDIR variable,
	similar to the other package types.

	cmake: Also set CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION in toolchainfile.cmake

	handling

	a clean tree when ccache is enabled.

	Default to sha256 password encoding, drop md5 support.


	Architecture:

	Support for RISC-V 32bit architecture, ARM A55, 75 and Saphira
	variants, MIPS support for mips32r3, mips64r3 and Marvell
	Octeon II/III variants.


	Toolchain:

	ARC toolchain 2018.09, ARM 8.2-2018.11, Codescape IMG/MTI MIPS
	2018.09-02, MUSL 1.1.21, GCC 6.5.0 / 7.4.0, GDB 8.2.1

2018.11-rc1, released November 9th, 2018

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	Architecture: RISC-V support (64bit) added.

	Toolchain: Glibc bumped to 2.28. Fortran support for external
	toolchains. ARM (Linaro) toolchains updated to 8.2-2018.08.

	Hardening flags (RELRO) are now handled by the toolchain
	wrapper instead of explicitly through CFLAGS/LDFLAGS, fixing a
	number of issues.

	Filesystems: Support for creating btrfs and f2fs filesystems
	added.

	Add a number of patches to fix build errors for host utilities
	on modern distributions using glibc-2.28.

	mkusers: Ensure existing group members are preserved when a
	group is reprocessed.

	printvars: Fix issue with exceeding shell command line length
	limits for certain setups.

	Workaround added for incompatibility issues between host-dtc
	and older U-Boot and Linux kernel versions.

	Detect and reject build paths containing '@', as this confuses
	a number of packages, including GCC.

	utils/diffconfig: Make it work for (non-Buildroot) config
	files not using the BR2_ prefix.

	New defconfigs: Amarula a64-relic, Bananapi m2 ultra, Embest
	riotboard, Hardkernel Odroid XU-4, QEMU riscv64-virt.
	olimex_a20_olinuxion_lime_mali is renamed to _legacy.

	OpenCL infrastructure support added, similar to how OpenGL is
	handled.

	Linux-headers: Support for kernel headers from a custom
	tarball / git repo added.

2018.08, Released September 6th, 2018

	Minor fixes.

	Known issues:

	- Glibc 2.28 on the build host breaks compilation of a number
	  of host packages. 2018.08 contains fixes for some of these
	  packages, but not all. Consider building on hosts (or in
	  containers) using older Glibc versions.

	- host-dtc 1.4.7 breaks compilation of older U-Boot and Linux
          kernel configurations using FDT/DTC. Consider updating the
          Linux kernel to >= 4.17 and U-Boot to >= 2018.07 or
          backporting commit 9130ba8846 (scripts/dtc: Update to
          upstream version v1.4.6-9-gaadd0b65c987) for the Linux
          kernel / commit db405d1980 for U-Boot.
	  Alternatively revert commit 7b929ddcf0 (dtc: bump version to
          1.4.7) and ensure your build host does not have the libfdt
          development headers installed.

	Updated/fixed packages: busybox, chipmunk, cutelyst,
	domoticz, gcc, imagemagick, lcms2, libcurl, mediastreamer,
	moarvm, php, qt, qt5virtualkeyboard, qt5webengine, screen,
