'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 2.7.2 is under review by the TSC and likely to be released.
*YP 5.0.18 has been released
*Tests were made on making reproducibility the default for poky. There were several issues found for which bugs were filed:
*YP 6.0.1 is in QA.
**A double free issue in opkg (Alejandro looking into, thanks)
*YP 6.1 M1 is due to build this week
**devtool failures (Paul sent a fix, thanks)
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
**recipetool failures (Richard sent a fix)
*Patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage have merged in bitbake but OE-Core still needs significant work, help would be welcome with this.
*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.
*We have merged support for `devtool upgrade --stable` and the upstream-stable-release-point bbclass. We hope to use this to track upstream projects with known good stable release series, but we need input and discussion on what the criteria should be. Please participate in the discussion on the OE-Architecture list: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/topic/119437109
*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.
*We have changed the xz and zstd decompression dependencies to make the build slightly more efficient and use the host tools for decompression
*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.
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
*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.
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
*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
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*If anyone has any status items for the project they’d like to add to the weekly reports, please email Richard+Stephen.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**groff build race issues
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
*We would like to know what people are planning to work on for Yocto Project 6.1 and beyond. We have a roadmap document in Google Docs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12xgAzSjDj5zVlo4eQIbiv1s3QMjtBTCvBFY3_T7OPto
