+
+ CMake support: fix cmake wrapper to properly pass NDEBUG flag.
+
+ Filesystems: use a wrapper to pseudo, to better mimick the behaviour
+ of fakeroot; makedevs no longer breaks of the destination already
+ exists and is of the correct type/major/minor.
+
+ Defconfigs: a few legacy and broken defconfigs have been removed
+ because they now fail to build: kb9202_defconfig, mini2440_defconfig,
+ freescale_p2020ds, qmx6, calao*, atmel_sama5d4ek. Other defconfigs
+ have been updated: nanopi-neo, olimex_a20_olinuxino_lime_mali,

+ atmel_sama5d3xek.
+
+2016.11-rc1, Released November 3rd, 2016
+
+ Fixes all over the tree and new features.
+
+ 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
+ MIPS core selection.
+
+ 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
+ flags defined by Buildroot.
+
+ 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.

+ gpio linux tools.
+
+ Removed packages: binutils 2.24, fakeroot, gcc 4.7, ipkg,
+ kodi-addon-xvdr, libgail, sstrip, torsmo, webkit, webkitgtk24,
+ wvdial, wvstreams.
+
+ 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.

+2016.08-rc1, Released August 6th, 2016
+
+ 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.
