'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7.2 is under review by the TSC and likely to be released.
*YP 5.0.17 was released
*Tests were made on making reproducibility the default for poky. There were several issues found for which bugs were filed:
*YP 6.0 M3 was released
**A double free issue in opkg (Alejandro looking into, thanks)
*YP 4.0.35 is in QA
**devtool failures (Paul sent a fix, thanks)
*YP 6.0 M4 is due to build
**recipetool failures (Richard sent a fix)
*We continue to triage the CVEs being reported by the new tooling.
*Tests were made on making the hashserver default for poky. There were also several issues found and RP is trying to understand and work through those. At least one critical issue has been identified and due to be tested.
*Various fixes have merged or are planned to merge before the M4 release build:
*The SWAT team no longer has enough people on it to make it sustainable and has therefore been disbanded. This means build owners need to triage their own build failures. Richard will be responsible for failures in the scheduled master builds.
**Various CVE issue resolutions from CVE triage
*Intermittent build failures continue to hamper builds, particularly combined with the above issues and as few people are available to attempt to debug and resolve them.
**Reproducibility issues with strace/apr-util
*The TSC is working on LTS plans, productive discussions have been had and a new policy on handling this and stable releases should be available in the next couple of weeks.
**Make race in groff
*We have begun collecting ideas for YP 3.1 in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UKZIGe88-eq3-pOPtkAvFAegbQDzhy_f4ye64yjnABc/edit?usp=sharing
**Shadow-native tallylog issue fix
*If anyone has any status items for the project they’d like to add to the weekly reports, please email Richard+Stephen.
**Upgrade of barebox to align with an LTS release
**Implementation of a wrapper for openat2, fixing Fedora 44 beta build failures
**Sbom-cve-check upgrade (along with dependencies)
*Issues still pending:
**32bit x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**Intermittent qemu boot failures of qemuarmv5 (and possibly qemuarm) since the last kernel upgrade
**Intermittent wic failures on the autobuilder
*At this point we will likely run the release build as the remaining issues aren’t critical to end users and we have no clear timeframe for resolution of them
git:// protocol access to git.yoctoproject.org and git.openembeded.org is deprecated and going forward https:// URLs should be used to access git repositories. We are aiming to discontinue git protocol use.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS.
*The final whinlatter build is happening this week.
