'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*We are now merging patches into master, debugging some of the issues has proven problematic but we’re making good progress on various deferred upgrades.
* YP 5.0.15 was released
*In particular there was a further problem with buildtools-extended-tarball which ended up ‘corrupting’ sstate by over-optimising binaries so they wouldn't run on older CPUs. Fixes for this have merged and we’ll need to release a new buildtools tarball.
* YP 5.3.1 is under review
*The 3.1 stable branch has started taking its first rounds of patches, help with review of these would be much appreciated.
* YP 6.0 M1 is in QA
*A 3.0 stable build is due as soon as the current patches in review are sorted out.
* YP 4.0.33 is queued for QA after 6.0 M1
*The multilib issue mentioned in previous status reports and on the architecture list is proving tricky, do we make the invasive changes in master-next for master now they appear to work? Backport to dunfell? Or try and come up with a more invasive core bitbake change?
* YP 6.0 M2 is due next week!
*We are aware of some issues with bug trend metrics due to server transitions and are working to resolve those.
* Good progress has been made with the autobuilder issues and an M1 build is in QA but we still don’t have the stability in builds we need for reliable project operations.
* There are currently 6 high open bugs, which will block M2:
** Issues reusing binaries from fedora 43 (and maybe ubuntu 25.10) on older systems (patchelf triggered?) (#16074, #16087)
** x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
** AB-INT: build-sysroots: useradd command did not succeed (#16135)
** Hangs of the autobuilder controller (database locking?) (#16129)
** Generation of releases.json needs updating (#16138)
* The number of intermittent failures affecting builds, both stable and development, continues to be problematic. Any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them and we often don’t have successful builds. Since we struggle to get help in addressing these, we need to change and start potentially blocking releases (including stable/LTS) until these get addressed in some way. We are holding some dedicated meetings to triage these and find ways of removing the failures from our builds which may include reducing testing.
* Patches are merging again but there is a backlog and we’ve had to prioritize simpler changes. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.

'''Ways to contribute:'''<br/>
*YP 3.2 M1 build date 2020/6/16
*We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to work on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C would be greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=661406&priority=High&priority=Medium%2B&product=Pseudo&query_format=advanced&resolution=---
