![]() Other changes include: - Refreshing all necessary patches for 3.7.0 - Add a hash for the license file. - Python no longer has it's own internal libffi, as such, host-libffi is now required to build host-python3, and is added as a dependency. - Drop PYTHON3_LIBTOOL_PATCH = NO, since there is no longer any internal libffi copy that was causing the libtool patching process to fail. - A new core module "uuid" is now is added in the Config.in file, and relies on util-linux's uuid library. - Also, a new patch: 0030-Fix-cross-compiling-the-uuid-module.patch is required to fix compiling the uuid module, because the include directory search path for uuid.h is hardcoded to /usr/include/uuid, which causes an "unsafe for cross-compilation" error during compiling if the host pc has uuid headers installed. - 0031-Add-an-option-to-disable-uuid-module.patch is added to allow disabling the Python3 UUID module, so that when BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON3_UUID is disabled by the UUID library is present, the uuid Python module is not built, as expected. - 0032-fix-building-on-older-distributions.patch is added to change os.replace by os.rename in the update_file.py script to fix building on older Linux distributions that have older versions of python that don't include os.replace. os.rename acts in the same way as os.replace, but is cross-platform compatible. Because Buildroot is guaranteed to be built in a POSIX environment, it is safe to change replace to rename.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
