'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 4.0.33 is due for release
*YP 5.0.18 has been released
*YP 5.0.16 is in QA
*YP 6.0.1 is in QA.
*YP 5.3.2 is queued for QA
*YP 6.1 M1 is due to build this week
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build when we have patches merged
*We’re working through the backlog of patches, the bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback continues to be a challenge.
*We have two open high issues which need further work that will block M3:
*Patches to remove shell=True subprocess usage have merged in bitbake but OE-Core still needs significant work, help would be welcome with this.
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (cpu features issue?) (#16074)
*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
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
*We have changed the xz and zstd decompression dependencies to make the build slightly more efficient and use the host tools for decompression
*We also have issues we need to resolve before release:
*Intermittent build failures continue to be problematic and unchanged from last week:
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup
**several qemu ‘hang’ type issues
**Splitting wic into an external tool
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
**Kernel rust support
**siggen reset issues (“ResourceWarning: unclosed transport”)
**Switching to pkg-config
**groff build race issues
**Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk)
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
*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
**DISTRO_FEATURES changes to ‘nodistro’ in OE-Core
**SBOM/cve-check changes
*We updated “nodistro” to use 3 of the include files poky was already using:
**Space optimization to reduce build footprint and sstate object size
**Disabling most static libraries by default (build size/speed wins)
**Enabling security flags by default
*“nodistro” now also enables uninative by default to allow for better CDN sstate reuse
*Distros now need to use INIT_MANAGER to select their preferred init system with the default being systemd for “nodistro”. Poky’s defaults remain unchanged and we don’t have plans to change this at this time due to the work involved and impact (e.g test result comparisons).
*The number of intermittent failures affecting builds, both stable and development, continues to be problematic - we continue to prioritise addressing these since any given build is now statistically likely to hit one or more of them.
*Patches are merging 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.
