[Buildroot] Buildroot 2019.05 released

[Peter Korsgaard]

Hi,

Buildroot 2019.05 is released - Go download it at:

http://buildroot.net/downloads/buildroot-2019.05.tar.gz

or

http://buildroot.net/downloads/buildroot-2019.05.tar.bz2

Or get it from Git:

git://git.buildroot.net/buildroot

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

This was another big development cycle with more than 1200 changes all
over the tree and almost 100 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:

- Architecture: Andes 32-bit (nds32) support added.

- Only build host-lzip / host-xz when really needed by packages, not
  just when not available on the build host.

- Toolchain: Glibc bumped to 2.29, musl bumped to 1.1.22, binutils 2.32
  added, 2.28/2.29 removed, default changed to 2.31.1.

- Linux: Also build default make target to ensure extra files like the
  gdb scripts enabled by CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS are also built. Notice: This
  may mean that extra host utilities like uboot-mkimage are needed.

- Infrastructure: show-info and <pkg>-show-info make targets added to
  output package metadata in JSON format for external use.
  pkg-config no longer uses the .config file to track timestamps as
  Linux 4.19+ touches it, causing rebuilds.

- Gettext-tiny package added as a lightweight replacement for GNU
  gettext for situations where NLS support is not needed.

- New defconfigs: Andes AE3XX, Freescale imx8mpico / imx8qxpmek / T2080
  QDS RDB, Licheepi zero, Orangepi R1

- New packages: bats-core, bayer2rgb-neon, brickd, cog, dacapo, enet,
  gettext-tiny, gli, gst1-plugins-bayer2rgb-neon, imx-sc-firmware,
  intel-mediadriver, intel-mediasdk, libcamera, libhtp, libp11, libwpe,
  lua-binaryheap, lua-gd, lua-lunitx, mender-artifact, most, oniguruma,
  openjdk, openjdk-bin, opensbi, optee-benchmark, optee-client,
  optee-examples, optee-os, optee-test, paho-mqtt-cpp,
  python-aioblescan, python-aioconsole, python-aiohttp-cors,
  python-aiomonitor, python-backcall, python-jedi, python-parso,
  python-pyjwt, python-terminaltables, suricata, tpm2-totp, uftp,
  wpebackend-fdo, wpewebkit

And the usual package version updates and bug fixes. See the CHANGES
file for details:

Once again our autobuilders have helped us fix a huge amount of build
issues. Thanks to all the people reviewing failures and fixing issues:

for i in $(git log --format=%H 2019.02..); do \
    git show --quiet $i | grep -q http://autobuild && \
    git show --quiet --format="%an" $i ; done | sort | uniq -c | \

This release will be supported with security and other important fixes
until 2019.08 is out. If you need longer support then consider using our
long term support release (2019.02.x) instead which will be supported
until March 2020.
