'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0.15 is under review.
*YP 5.0.18 has been released
*YP 5.3.1 is in QA
*YP 6.0.1 is in QA.
*YP 6.0 M1 will build when we have resolved enough issues to mean the build is likely to succeed and the release of sufficient quality
*YP 6.1 M1 is due to build this week
*Good progress has been made with the autobuilder issues and builds now complete but contain failures.
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*There are currently 6 high open bugs, some of which block M1, some could be deferred to M2:
*Patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage have merged in bitbake but OE-Core still needs significant work, help would be welcome with this.
**Hangs of the autobuilder controller (database locking?) (#16129)
*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
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 43 (and maybe ubuntu 25.10) on older systems (patchelf triggered?) (#16074, #16087)
*We have changed the xz and zstd decompression dependencies to make the build slightly more efficient and use the host tools for decompression
**still need to disable the npm fetcher (#16105)
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (#16074)
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**AB-INT: build-sysroots: useradd command did not succeed (#16135)
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*The number of intermittent failures affecting stable release builds is becoming problematic. Any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them and we 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.
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
*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.
**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
