'''Tip of the Week:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*‘oe-pkgdata-browser’ is a new handy small helper UI added by Ross to visualise the pkgdata held within a build.
*YP 5.0.2 is in QA.
*(anyone with tips they’d like to see here, please send to Stephen or Richard)
*YP 5.2 M2 is due to build next week.
*An issue with code content in python library functions and their effect on task hashes was identified and improvements have merged to bitbake for this.
*A patch changing the way the *FLAGS variables operate merged.
*An autobuilder migration blocking issue with cpu emulation under qemu+KVM was identified and worked around by kernel tweaks, thanks Bruce.
*Some larger patches are on the list and help reviewing these would be appreciated:
**Adding SPDX 3.0 from Joshua
**Improved CVE tooling from Marta
**bitbake-setup and configuration fragments from Alexander
*There is an open letter the project has created related to the CVE/NVD situation, more information is available here: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/1990
**The letter has proved helpful in discussions and helping influence changes at CISA and the CVE Project so has already been useful.
*We continue to have trouble tracking down the rust reproducibility problem in rustdoc. We tested rust 1.78 with master and there is a long list of reported issues on the mailing list unfortunately.


'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.1 M2 is due to be built next week.
*As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
*Patch merging is roughly on track however there are a number of failures identified with key patches (glibc has a prelink issue on mips, python 3.8 upgrade blocked on uid issue, gstreamer meson transition blocked on nodistro failure). Most of these issues are making progress over time.
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*The more worrying aspect is that there are a number of recurring/intermittent failures in the automated testing, mostly from selftest and testimage.
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.1. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.1_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*Looking at the build history, “full” images have built cleanly only once in the past month (3 times in the last two months), which is a pretty shocking statistic which summarises the challenges we face there. Most of these are being procrastinated on by the bug owners since we can’t reproduce them at will. We really need help working on these kinds of issues.
*We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
*We have changed the sstate mirrors to be per release, simply to lower the numbers of files in any given sstate directory.
*Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent 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.
*The triage team is worried about attendance at triage meetings and the project is finding it hard to find people to help fix bugs. If anyone is willing to work on bugs, assistance would be greatly appreciated.
*Help us resolve CVE issues: CVE metrics
*We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
