'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
 
*YP 5.2.3 is due to be released.
*YP 3.1.18 was released
*YP 5.0.12 is due to be released.
*YP 4.0.3 is due to build this week but we need the glibc and kernel reproducibility fixes first
*YP 5.3 M3 is due to build soon
*Major changes to the rust toolchain build process were merged and this enables target rust, cross SDK and automated SDK testing. Sadly some issues remain and are stopping enabling the tests by default.
*We’re at feature freeze for YP 5.3
*We have finally tracked down and worked out a fix for the kernel reproducibility issue which appeared in recent 5.15 stable updates. It was a config option which changed depending on whether /bin/sh was dash or bash.
*Updates to the 6.16 kernel are pending before the 5.3 M3 build
*The 5.19 kernel uprev is nearly ready to merge as the final build issues look to have been addressed.
*We aim to merge bitbake-setup before building 5.3 M3
*The base glibc 2.36 patches have merged but not the actual upgrade yet.
*This change will mean “poky” as a combo-layer repository will no longer be needed or updated. This means autobuilder changes before we build 5.3 M3.
*We had some infrastructure issues over the weekend which impacted the autobuilder. Combined with a number of complex patch submissions, this has meant there are patches backlogged.
*Patch merging is continuing as long as the risk for the changes are low
*A number of new CVEs appeared in master this week so help would be much appreciated in addressing those.
*There are a couple of open Yocto Project positions which we’re in the process of advertising:
*The debug file mapping issues are stalled due to developer bandwidth limitations.
**Ecosystem Engineering and Operations Lead
*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
**LTS Maintainer  - Steve Sakoman is retiring in April 2026 (full details pending)

*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
*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!
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 4.1 See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.1_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
*There is an issue open upstream with the openssl project related to making path relocation of openssl easier (as used in our buildtools tarball and SDK). We’d love assistance in moving this forward and getting some kind of upstream feature merged to make this easier: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/19260
*There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://dashboard.yoctoproject.org/bugtriage/#newcomer-container
*There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 5.3. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium+_5.3_Unassigned_Enhancements/Bugs
*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.
