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

Again a very active development cycle with more than 1400 changes and contributions from more than 120 unique contributors!

Of noteworthy new features/changes we have:

- Add experimental support for building with a per-package target and host directory. This still has some rough edges, but brings a number of advantages:

- Packages will only be able to access the explicitly listed dependencies and not any other packages that happen to be built before, ensuring correct dependency information in Buildroot.

- Possibility for top-level parallel builds, speeding up builds on multicore machines.

- Architecture: Add support for ARC-HS38 with 64bit multiplier variant, allow building glibc for big endian ARC, handle 16KB MMU page size for ARC in toolchain wrapper.

- Toolchain: Add binutils 2.33.1, GCC 7.5.0, Arm 9.2-2019.12 toolchains, ARC 2019.09 toolchain. Allow using custom kernel headers newer than what is known by Buildroot.

- pkg-stats: Support for CVE vulnerability reporting by comparing to NVD database.

- Util-linux: Ensure that hwclock is built without GPLv3 code. Notice that builds with hwclock has contained GPLv3-licensed code since util-linux 2.30 (Buildroot 2017.08+)

- New defconfigs: Beelink GS1, Raspberrypi4 64bit

- New packages: alura, avro-c, bubblewrap, cctz, cereal, qcpuburn-arm, elixir, erlang-base64url, erlang-idna, erlang-jose, erlang-p1-acme, erlang-p1-mqtree, erlang-p1-yconf, fluid-soundfont, fluidsynth, gcnano-binaries, gensio, glslsandbox-player, libargon2, libmodsecurity, libpam-nfc, libtelnet, lua-codegen, lua-livr, lua-livr-extra, lua-rotas, lua-silva, mfoc, network-manager-openvpn, nginx-modsecurity, perl-crypt-openssl-aes, perl-math-prime-util, pipewire, ptm2human, python-aenum, python-aiohttp-debugtoolbar, python-aiohttp-mako, python-aiologstash, python-aiosignal, python-aiozipkin, python-async-lru, python-avro, python-bunch, python-crontab, python-dnspython, python-entrypoints, python-esptool, python-frozenlist, python-future, python-gitdb, python-janus, python-lockfile, python-logstash, python-nested-dict, python-pbr, python-pyaes, python-pydantic, python-smmap2, python-sockjs, python-zc-lockfile, raspi-gpio, rocksdb, sdbusplus, spidermonkey, thermald, ti-sgx-libgbm, tinyssh, tio, umtprd, weston-imx, wireguard-linux-compat, wireguard-tools, xdg-dbus-proxy

We had a very nice developers' meeting in Brussels earlier this month with lots
of work getting done:

https://elinux.org/Buildroot:DeveloperDaysFOSDEM2020

Many thanks to the participants and sponsors!

A next branch has already been created, and changes for the 2020.05 have started to get merged.

Keep in mind that 2020.02 will become the new long term support release, replacing 2020.02.
