-OpenWrt Buildroot needs a case-sensitive file system. It should work on almost any Linux distribution. +case-sensitive file system is required.\\ 
- +The OpenWrt [[wp>Buildroot|buildroot]] build system works on [[:docs:guide-developer:build-system:install-buildsystem|GNU/Linux]][[:docs:guide-developer:build-system:buildroot.exigence.macosx|macOS]] and [[wp>BSD]].
-  * Tested: Debian (6, 7, 8), Ubuntu, Fedora 19,20 , Arch Linux, OpenSuse 13.3 +
-  * Exotic Linux variants might have some bugs regarding headers (Alpine Linux). +
-  * BSD (FreeBSD), [[docs:guide-developer:buildroot.exigence.macosx|MacOSX]] are somewhat untested. +
-  * Cygwin (Windows) has possible issues with file system being not case-sensitive. +
- +
-Recommended: Build older versions with older Linux versions in a VM. +
