Yocto Project Weekly Status March 12th, 2024

Current Dev Position: YP 5.0 M4 - Final Release
Next Deadline: 1st April 2024 YP 5.0 M4 build

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 5.0 M3 is in QA
  • YP 3.1.32 was released
  • A key worry now is the documentation for the release, especially given it is an LTS
  • The QA screenshot changes were merged but not enabled as there were too many bugs still present.
  • The go upgrade to 1.22 did merge
  • We are seeing issues with devtool tests changing metadata and causing race issues. It is unclear why we’re seeing these now.
  • The opkg lock issue with systemd images continues to be a significant concern for the release.
  • The previously reported CVE database update issue on the autobuilder has not been addressed yet. This is causing higher numbers of CVEs to be reported on the autobuilder generated charts.
  • There have been questions about official RISC-V support in this next release, especially since it is an LTS. We will trial qemuriscv64 support in M3 but remove it before the final LTS release as there is no sponsor for that support.
