*YP 3.4 M3 is built and now in QA. This means we are now feature complete for 3.4 and will be working on stabilization.
*YP 3.4 M3 has been released
*YP 3.3.3 has been built and is waiting in the queue for QA after 3.4 M3. This includes the override syntax compatibility changes.
*YP 3.3.3 rc2 is in QA.
*SBOM generation work was merged in and will be in the release as preliminary work on this topic, there will likely be some further tweaks during M4.
*YP 3.1.11 is due to build this week.
*Further rust issues were resolved such as the centos7 build issues.
*We now have a public hash equivalence service from the autobuilder available and instructions on testing with this are on the mailing list. With a couple of recent fixes, build from the autobuilder sstate are now possible and quite effective.
*A work around for the glibc 2.34 clone3 syscalls in uninative was added and a new uninative built/released.
*Issues have been found in the output task hashes related to timestamps and improvements for this are pending in master-next.
*A fix for some of the multiconfig issues where deadlocked tasks and tasks were showing errors being on both the “covered and not covered lists” is available in master-next for review, hopefully addressing the issues that were being reported. This was possible from a better test case that was submitted enabling debugging.
*We have noticed bitbake was hiding deprecation warnings and plan to fix that before the release of 3.4. This may cause some warnings to become visible before release that will need fixing but some of those issues will be problematic with python 3.10 which will be released in the lifetime of 3.4.
*Fixes for task failure handling on the console were merged into bitbake to reduce duplicate output where log files may be printed multiple times.
*Expansion errors in bitbake should now print variable dependency chains making them easier to understand/debug.
*Intermittent issues are ongoing and help is very much welcome on these issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT
