Buildroot 2019.08.3 is a bugfix release, fixing a number of important /
security related issues discovered since the 2019.08.2 release.
- Infrastructure: Make HOST_<pkg>_DL_OPTS inherit from
<pkg>_DL_OPTS by default, just like it is done for a number of
other package variables
Add <pkg>_KEEP_PY_FILES to exclude specific python .py files
from the removal done by BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON{,3}_PYC_ONLY for
the (rare) case where the .py files are needed at runtime
rather than .pyc.
Fix <pkg>-reconfigure handling for packages using the kconfig
infrastructure.
- Toolchain: ensure external toolchain kernel headers version check
correctly stop the build on mismatch
- Security fixes for asterisk, bind, clamav, haproxy, intel-microcode,
jasper, jpeg-turbo, libnss, oniguruma, python-django, rabbitmq-c,
spice, tiff, webkitgtk
- Fixes for download/compilation/runtime/license issues in am33x-cm3,
chrony, cmocka, collectd, connman, dhcp, dropwatch, faifa,
gettext-tiny, gob2, ipsec-tools, jailhouse, kodi, kvm-unit-tests,
libftdi, libftdi1, libressl, libstrophe, libsvgtiny, lvm2, lzma,
mariadb, minicom, mosquitto, ninja, neardal, nodejs, opencv3, openvmtools,
oracle-mysql, perl-gdgraph, perl-gdtextutil, php, postgresql, prosody,
python-cchardet, qt5wayland, rauc, redis, rpcbind, socat, spice, tftpd,
