	#11681: .. unable to initialize decompress status for section..

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.

	SDK: Fix handling of relative symlinks (targets starting with
	'.' or '..')

	BR2_SYSTEM_DEFAULT_PATH setting to customize the default path
	for processes.

	The custom skeleton logic will now populate the needed /bin,
	/lib, /sbin directories/symlinks if not present. Merged /usr
	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

	Various improvements to the meson infrastructure.

	Luarocks: A Buildroot addon has been added to automate
	creating a Buildroot package from luarocks, similar to
	scancpan and scanpypi.

	scanpypi: protect against zip-slip vulnerability in zip/tar
	handling

	check-package: fix Python 3 support

	get-developers: Fix behaviour when called from elsewhere than
	the toplevel directory.

	pkg-stats: Show latest upstream version of each package, based
	on data from release-monitoring.org

	kconfig: Fix for make linux-menuconfig / uboot-menuconfig from
	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


	Packages:

	openssl: Bump to 1.1.1x series, bringing TLSv1.3 support and
	long term support.

	fftw: Split into fftw-{single,double,long-double,quad}
	packages for the different data precision options.

	libcurl: Now has explicit TLS backend selection options.

	linux: Support building device tree blobs with the -@ option
	for device tree overlays.

	weston: The weston-imx i.MX variant is now used when
	imx-gpu-viv is enabled

	pkgconf: Update to 1.5.3, which brings support for
	--define-prefix (used by GStreamer)

	Add host-python3-setuptools package to handle host python
	packages needing python3 with setuptools support.

	a number of packages, including GCC.

	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.

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,

	#11276: Understanding the patch for kernel-4.9 and other..

2018.08-rc3, Released August 31th, 2018

	#11051: runtime issue on STM32 with usage of binutils 2.29.x

2018.05-rc3, Released May 28th, 2018

	Fixes all over the tree.

	Toolchain: ARC tools updated to arc-2018.03-rc2.

	Fs: Ensure hard links in TARGET_DIR are correctly copied for
	filesystem input. With the recent changes to the file system
	generation logic, hard links were "expanded" in file system
	images leading to bloated rootfs images for setups with hard
	links.

	method but forgetting to specify <pkg>_SITE.

	no longer shipping rpcgen with glibc (E.G. recent Fedora).

2018.05-rc2, Released May 22nd, 2018

	Fixes all over the tree.

	Dependencies: Check that the current working directory (.)
	isn't listed in PATH as that causes various build issues.

	Manual: Clarify that git branch names may not be used as
	version identifiers. This has never been supported, but was
	kind of working (with some limitations) before the git
	download rework - Now it does not work at all.

	Linux: Ensure host version of ncurses is picked up and not
	host-ncurses built by buildroot, as that otherwise causes
	widechar/non-widechar conflicts and corrupted menuconfig
	menus.

	Packages: Renamed a number of package options not prefixed
	with BR2_PACKAGE_<pkg> for consstency.

	Download infrastructure: Fix file:// protocol handling after
	download rework.

2018.05-rc1, Released May 9th, 2018

	Toolchain: glibc bumped to 2.27, musl bumped to 1.1.19,
	uClibc-ng 1.0.30, Linux kernel headers bumped to 4.16.x.

	Architecture: support for the Blackfin architecture has been
	removed, as it was removed from Linux upstream, poorly
	maintained in binutils/gdb, and abandoned by Analog Devices.

	Numerous packages updated to have hashes for their license
	files.

	Systemd can now be built with uClibc toolchains.

	Linux: addition of BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_NEEDS_HOST_LIBELF and
	BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_NEEDS_HOST_OPENSSL to support building Linux
	kernel configurations that need libelf on the host or openssl
	on the host.

	Coding style:
	- all Python scripts are now verified with flake8
	- check-package extended to check all Config.in and .mk files
	  in tree, not only the ones in package/

	Infrastructure:

	- The download infrastructure has seen a major overhaul, with
	  the main visible new feature being Git caching: a package
	  fetched from Git no longer needs to be re-cloned entirely
	  everytime its version is changed. Anoter visible change is
	  that the download folder now has subfolders per package. See
	  http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2018-April/217923.html
	  for more details about those changes.

	- The logic that generates the root filesystem images has been
	  reworked, with the main goal of allowing several filesystem
	  images to be produced in parallel, also a requirement for
	  top-level parallel build. Now, a .tar filesystem image is
	  always created, and re-extracted in a private directory to
	  create each format-specific filesystem image.

	- A new package infrastructure was introduced for Go-based
	  packages: golang-package.

	- Dependencies on extraction tools are now handled as proper
	  per-package dependencies, using
	  <pkg>_EXTRACT_DEPENDENCIES. Beyond a cleanup, this is also a
	  preparation step for top-level parallel build support.

	- When a file being downloaded is part of a package with a
	  .hash file, but there is no hash listed for this file, the
	  file is now preserved in the download directory rather than
	  removed. This helps when updating a package, as it gives the
	  ability to easily calculate the hash of the file.

	- Addition of '<pkg>-show-recursive-depends' and
	  '<pkg>-show-recursive-rdepends' make targets, to
	  respectively display the recursive list of dependencies and
	  the recursive list of reverse dependencies of a given
	  package.

	- The /etc/shells file is now automatically generated with the
	  list of shell programs installed on the system.

	- Addition of -Ofast optimization level as an available
	  option.

	Major updates: Go updated to 1.10, Erlang bumped to 20.3, Qt5
	bumped to 5.10.1.

	New packages: 18xx-ti-utils, abootimg, bluez-alsa, brotli,
