Or get it from Git:

https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot.git (2024.11 tag)

Please give it a spin and report any problems to the mailing list or
bug tracker.

Again a quite active development cycle with almost 1600 changes all over
the tree and 103 unique contributors! I'm once again very happy to see
so many "new" people next to the "oldtimers".

Of noteworthy new features/changes we have:

Toolchain:
- binutils 2.43 added, binutils 2.42 becomes the default.
- glibc updated to 2.40
- ARM, Bootlin and Synopsys external toolchains updated
- Support added for ARM FDPIC, which allows to use shared
  libraries on ARM noMMU targets

Go support: allow using a pre-built Go compiler, using the new
go-bin package.

New defconfigs: friendlyarm_nanopi_neo, nvidia_bf3, stm32f746_disco_sd,

The next release will be 2025.02, which will become the next long term
support release. Expect the first release candidate at the beginning of
February and the final release at the end of the month.

This release will be supported with security and other important fixes
until 2025.02 is out.
