From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Peter Korsgaard Date: Sat, 31 Aug 2013 00:40:29 +0200 Subject: [Buildroot] Buildroot 2013.08 released Message-ID: <87d2oueraa.fsf@dell.be.48ers.dk> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: buildroot@busybox.net Hi, Buildroot is a simple tool for creating complete embedded Linux systems (http://buildroot.net). Buildroot 2013.08 is released - Go download it at: http://buildroot.net/downloads/buildroot-2013.08.tar.gz or http://buildroot.net/downloads/buildroot-2013.08.tar.bz2 Or get it from Git: git://git.buildroot.net/buildroot After 3 months of development a new stable Buildroot release is out. Significant changes are: - The work of Spenser Gilliland on improving the ARM multimedia support in Buildroot, through a Google Summer of Code, has started to flow into Buildroot. To date, Spenser has merged OpenMAX support for RasberryPi, the addition of GStreamer 1.x, the bump of the glib/gtk/webkit stack to the latest versions, OpenGL support for TI OMAP platforms and for Allwinner SOCs. - The internal toolchain backend has also seen a number of improvements: it has been completely converted to use the common package infrastructure, it now supports generating eglibc toolchains, and it has a much better support of floating point options (EABIhf support, EABI soft-float and softfp, etc.) and Thumb/Thumb2 on ARM. - The OABI ARM support has been removed, after having been deprecated for a while. It is worth mentionning that OABI support has already been completely removed from upstream GCC. - Defconfigs: beaglebone_defconfig updated, new defconfig for CubieBoard, for Olimex mx233 Olinuxino, for Calao Systems TNY-A9G20-LPW. And the usual package version updates and bug fixes. See the CHANGES file for details: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/plain/CHANGES?id=2013.08 Many thanks to all the people contributing to this release: git shortlog -s -n 2013.05.. 192 Gustavo Zacarias 126 Thomas Petazzoni 74 Peter Korsgaard 49 Spenser Gilliland 47 Yann E.

The Buildroot plugin for Eclipse has also been updated. A new version 3.0 has been released, which is now compatible with the latest version of Eclipse, Kepler 4.3. See https://github.com/mbats/eclipse-buildroot-bundle/wiki for more details. Next release will be 2013.11. Expect the first release candidate early November, and the final release at the end of the month. Also worth nothing is that the Buildroot project is organizing a two-days Buildroot Developers Days meeting on October 26-27 in Edinburgh, right after the Embedded Linux Conference Europe (October 24-25). Developers interested in Buildroot are welcome to join, please let us know if you are interested in participating.
