CHANGES

2020.08.1, released October 12th, 2020

	Important / security related fixes.

	Fixes for various compilation issues with GCC 10.x.

	meson: Correct SDK cross-compilation.conf file when
	per-package builds were used to build SDK.

	systemd: Use /run rather than /var/run for PID files in units.

	Toolchain: use Secure-PLT rather than BSS-PLT for PowerPC 32.

	Fakeroot scripts (BR2_ROOTFS_POST_FAKEROOT_SCRIPT) are now run
	after all finalization hooks (including pre-rootfs) to ensure
	they can override any late configuration done by packages.

	support/script/pycompile: Rework logic to ensure .pyc files
	contain absolute target paths, fixing code inspection at
	runtime when executed with cwd != '/'.

	support/scripts/setlocalversion: Correct Mercurial output to
	match behaviour with Git.

	support/scripts/apply-patches.sh: Use patch
	--no-backup-if-mismatch, so we no longer blindly have to
	remove *.orig files after patching, fixing issues with
	packages containing such files.

	fs/jffs2: Now correctly handles xattrs
