'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
'''Key Status/Updates:'''<br/>
*YP 5.0.15 is under review.
*YP 6.1 is due for release
*YP 5.3.1 is in QA
*YP 6.0.4 is due for release
*YP 6.0 M1 will build when the 5 open high bugs are resolved.
*YP 5.0.21 is under review
*There are also 4 high bugs open for 6.0 M2.
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
*We are seeing multiple serious issues blocking 6.0 M1 from building:
*Reproducibility issues between different build archs is looking much better, we have remaining issues in systemtap, rust, rpm-sequoia, mesa and rpm.
**A glibc test causing builds to hang (a buffer overflow SIGABRT in unfs3 triggered by host compiler + fortify source) (#16113)
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**Hangs of the autobuilder controller (database locking, should be fixed) (#16129)
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**Issues with a CVE patch applied to tar in rocky9/alma9/centos-stream using the openat2 syscall which pseudo doesn’t wrap (#16117)
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
**Issues reusing binaries from fedora 43 (and maybe ubuntu 25.10) on older systems (patchelf triggered?) (#16074, #16087)
*We will update rsync to v3.5.1 on scarthgap & wrynose. This is an exception to the usual process as the backported CVE patches were not reviewable or maintainable.
**still need to disable the npm fetcher (#16105)
*Big thanks to Tim Orling for key fixes for layerindex and error reporting
*We have not had this number of high bugs blocking releases in several years
*Builds are now working on Fedora 45 thanks to a pseudo fix and fetcher tweaks for wget v2
*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 plan to form a dedicated team to investigate these and find ways of removing the failures from our builds which may include reducing testing.
*UK and European daylight savings time finishes this Sunday, some meeting times track US Pacific timezone so double check your calendars next week.
*To be clear, due to the problems above, most patch testing is now stalled as the autobuilder is currently inoperable and we can’t test anything.
*The CFP is now open for the OpenEmbedded Workshop to be held in Brussels on Feb 1st 2027.
*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!
*Thanks to everyone who attended the Dev Day or came and saw us in Prague. This was the largest Yocto Dev Day so far!
