+2017.05-rc1, Released May 8th, 2017
+
+ Fixes all over the tree and new features.
+
+ Infrastructure:
+
+ - Installed binaries are now checked for correct architecture
+ to catch natively built binaries or binaries built for other
+ architecture variants.
+
+ - Luarocks infrastructure improvements to extraction handling,
+ support for upstream name != Buildroot package name.
+
+ - 'make printvars' output format has changed to make it easier
+ to use in scripts. It now has options to quote the variables
+ and to show the expanded/unexpanded values.
+
+ - Automatic ext2 rootfs size calculation has been removed. The
+ logic was not working working reliable in all setups as it
+ depends on the host filesystem behaviour, so instead now the
+ size has to be specified explicitly (defaults to 60MB).
+
+ - The git download infrastructure now ensures that GNU format
+ tar files are created.
+
+ - Fixed a variable clashing issue in the mkusers script with
+ internal bash variables.
+
+ - Fakeroot now links against libacl to fix issues on
+ distributions using acls.
+
+ - Correct permissions for /dev/pts/ptmx when systemd is used
+ with recent glibc versions.
+
+ - br2-external: Improve error reporting.
+
+ - A wrapper script for genimage has been added in
+ support/scripts/genimage.sh for easy use of genimage from
+ post-image scripts.
+
+ - A script to check for common style issues in new packages
+ before submitting has been added in support/scripts/check-package
+
+ - Defconfigs are now tested by gitlab-CI instead of Travis:
+ https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot
+
+ - Infrastructure for runtime testing has been added to
+ support/testing
+
+ Toolchain:
+
+ - External linaro toolchains updated to 2017.02, ARC toolchain
+ updated to 2017.03-rc1, NIOSII CodeSourcery to 2017.05
+
+ - A number of fixes and improvements to the external toolchain
+ handling, including C library detection, multilib and ld.so
+ handling
+
+ - Glibc 2.25 and uClibc-ng 1.0.24 added, wordexp support enabled
+ for uClibc-ng
+
+ - Binutils 2.28 added and default changed to 2.27
+
+
+ Architectures:
+
+ - Support for the C-SKY architecture has been added.
+
+
+ License handling:
+
+ - The package license markings for legal info now uses the
+ SPDX short identifiers for the license string where possible.
+
+ - License info has been improved / added for a number of packages.
+
+
+ Misc:
+
+ - Cmake 3.7.x installed on the host is no longer ignored as a
+ workaround for the RPATH issues has been implemented.
+
+ - Docker-engine can now be built statically on an otherwise
+ dynamic linked build for docker-in-docker setups.
+
+ - U-Boot now supports out-of-tree device trees, similar to
+ Linux
+
+ - Nodejs 0.10.x support (and with it, support for <ARMv6) has
+ been removed as this is now EOL upstream.
+
+ New defconfigs: AT91sam9x5ek dev/mmc/mmc-dev, banana pro,
+ Nationalchip gx6605s, MIPS creator ci40, nexbox a95x, 64bit
+ defconfig for raspberry pi 3, stm32f429-disc1.
+
+ The raspberry pi zero-w and rpi3 compute module are now also
+ supported by the rpi0 / rpi3 defconfigs, beaglebone green is
+ supported by the beaglebone defconfig.
+
+ Removed defconfig: minnowboard, via imx6 vab820, altera
+ socdk/sockit
