'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0.15 is in QA
*YP 6.0 M2 has been released.
*YP 6.0 M1 will build when the 5 open high bugs are resolved.
*YP 4.0.34 is due to be released.
*We have a number of issues with build performance tests, test results and hanging glibc NFS tests on the autobuilder which need to be resolved before we can build a new release.
*YP 5.3.3 is in review after QA.
*Due to the number of problems currently present, patch merging will have to slow to avoid adding any further issues.
*YP 6.0 M3 is the feature freeze for 6.0 which is our next LTS.
*Yoann Congal is starting to ramp up as the new LTS maintainer to take over from Steve Sakoman
*YP 6.0 M3 is now due to build however there are many key changes needed still missing.
*The linux kernel is now defaulting to 6.18 and the other versions will soon be removed.
**Issues still pending:
*We have isolated the Fedora43 workers until we can root cause the binary problems it was causing when the sstate was shared to older systems
**Splitting wic into an external tool.
*The project is exploring the idea of applying for funding for security related work. If anyone (individual or consultancies) has ideas, please talk to Paul/Richard/TSC. This is an opportunity to work on those issues you never have time/funding for!
**Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk)
*We will be entirely disabling the npm fetcher in bitbake due to the security issues until those are resolved (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16105)..
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
**DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements.
**SBOM/cve-check changes.
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
*Issues that are mostly known quantities still needing work:
**x86 kvm seemingly broken with certain CPU features (#16074)
**Failure to generate regression reports in release builds
**Reconcile poky and OE-Core defaults templates.
**Resolve Fedora 43 selftest failures
**Fixing yocto-check-layer to work with –machines
*Issues that were resolved this week:
**Switching to pkg-config.
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup (further tweaks still being discussed)
*We are seeing issues with older versions of tar on RHEL 9 derived distros (selinux triggers due to xattrs)
*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.
