As Java is used quite a bit in the enterprise world, having the option to build the LTS version of OpenJDK is quite convenient and also a requirement for many companies wanting to use Java. As such, there are three options: 1) Continue only to support the latest version of OpenJDK. 2) Downgrade our existing OpenJDK package from 14 to 11. 3) Add an option to support either OpenJDK 11 or 14. OpenJDK 11 and 14 currently have: - The same configure options. - The same license files and hashes for those license files. - The same dependencies. - The same method to build and install. As such, supporting both 11 and 14 is not only an easy option to add to Buildroot, but also a nice feature for users who wish to use Java in an embedded environment with a company that mandates the use of the LTS version. To make it explicit that this choice really is about LTS vs. latest, and not about 11 vs. 14, the options are really named with LTS and LATEST, so that future defconfigs will not have to migrate when the versions changes (e.g. we update from 14->15, or from 11 to the next LTS).

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.
