It is now possible to specify multiple BR2_EXTERNAL
directories. The required files in a BR2_EXTERNAL directory
have changed to accomodate this feature. Refer to the
documentation for details of how to update them. External
trees now have a name and a description. Also, it is possible
to override a defconfig in the external tree.
The default skeleton now uses UID 65534 for the "nobody"
user instead of UID 99, like most distros do. See
https://lwn.net/Articles/695478/ for a complete discussion.
Programs and configuration files that explicitly refer to UID
99 will have to be updated.
When the build environment already has a suitable cmake version
(3.1 or later), that one will be used instead of building
host-cmake. This can speed up the build significantly.
The ExtUtils::MakeMaker perl module is now required in the
build environment.
An additional check is done during the build that files are
not installed in the output directory within the output
directory. This happens e.g. when the target directory is
contained both in --prefix and in DESTDIR. The build will
terminate with an error message that specifies which package
and which file caused the failure.
The concept of "deprecated packages" and the BR2_DEPRECATED
option have been removed. Instead, packages are removed
immediately. Packages are only removed when they don't work
for some reason. If you still need a removed package and
you have a solution for the problem(s) that caused the
removal, please contribute it.
Architecture: support for sh64 removed, improved support for
Toolchain: support for musl powerpc64le, mips64 and mipsr6
toolchains, ARC toolchain components updates, gcc 6.x series
bumped to 6.2.0, default binutils version switched to 2.26,
default gcc version switched to gcc 5.x, Linaro toolchains
updated, uclibc-ng bumped to 1.0.19. GCC is now always built
with TLS support. Checking of unsafe compiler options (that
point to host directories) has been extended with -isystem,
-idirafter and -iquote.
Package infrastructure: new variable $(PKG)_DL_OPTS, addition
of <pkg>-show-rdepends to list reverse dependencies, and
<pkg>-graph-rdepends to graph reverse dependencies. Linux tools
are now in a separate linux-tools package instead of in the
kernel build. Fakeroot has been replaced by pseudo.
CMake support: the toolchainfile.cmake file now provides a
definition of the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE variable. The
toolchainfile.cmake also no longer forces the compiler/linker
New defconfigs: WaRP7, Solidrun's MX6 Cubox/Hummingboard,
TS-4900, Grinn's liteBoard, Udoo MX6Q/DL, Qemu ARM noMMU,
BeagleBone Qt5 demo, Digilent Zybo, FriendlyARM Nanopi NEO.
New packages: arm-trusted-firmware, amd-catalyst, atop, aufs,
aufs-util, fwts, gst1-rtsp-server, libglob, libite, mfgtools,
mksh, motion, paho-mqtt-c, php-amqp, pseudo, python-couchdb,

gpio linux tools.
Removed packages: binutils 2.24, fakeroot, gcc 4.7, ipkg,
kodi-addon-xvdr, libgail, sstrip, torsmo, webkit, webkitgtk24,
Documentation: the list of packages that was present in the
Buildroot manual has been removed.
Legal info: the "licenses.txt" file that concatenates all
license texts is no longer generated - it was not considered
useful. The manifest.csv contains an empty cell instead of
"not saved" when no license file is available.
Other: addition of a DEVELOPERS file listing developers taking
care of packages or architectures.

Fixes all over the tree and new features.
Toolchain: Fortran support added. eglibc support removed, musl
support no longer experimental. Blackfin and Microblaze
support for internal uClibc-ng toolchain, m68k/coldfire
improvements. The check for unsafe (build host) directories
access (/usr/include and /usr/lib) is now enabled by default.
Unused locales are now purged by default to save space (and
the default list of locales shrunk). The option to control
this has now moved from the toolchain menu to system
configuration.
Legal info improvements: sources are now hardlinked instead of
copied if possible to save space. Patches and extra downloads
are also saved.
An experimental configuration knob (BR2_REPRODUCIBLE) has been
added to make the builds more reproducible (E.G. less
differences in the binary output between builds of the same
configuration). This is still work in progress.
An option to execute a custom script inside the fakeroot
environment used to the generate the filesystem (E.G. to tweak
permissions or similar) has been added.
Git support now supports git submodules if
<pkg>_GIT_SUBMODULES is enabled.
Hash files for integritry validation have been added for all
packages.
Scanpypi utility to help creating packages from the Python
package index (pypi) has been added.
The makedevs utility now has support for adding file
capabilities using extended attributes.

Toolchain: Support for GCC 5.3.x. ARC toolchain updated to
arc-2015.12. Support for legacy uClibc dropped, default to
uClibc-ng instead. Added sys/queue.h implementation for MUSL
for compatibility. Updated versions of Code sourcery and
Linaro toolchains. MIPS Codescape toolchains added. Version
selection for preconfigured external toolchains removed.
New Defconfigs: ARM Juno r0/r1 development boards, Freescale
i.MX6UL Evaluation Kit, Intel Galileo Gen 2, Orange Pi PC.
A number of defconfigs have been extended to generate complete
system images using genimage.
Linux: Automatically patch timeconst.pl for <3.9 kernels,
which isn't compatible with modern perl versions, breaking the
build when building on recent (Fedora 23, Debian
Testing/Unstable, ..) distributions.
Makedevs utility now accepts textual (non-numerical) user and
group names.
Vagrant file to easily setup a working development environment
in a VM has been added.
