*YP 4.0.33 is due for release
*YP 6.1 is due for release
*YP 5.0.16 is in QA
*YP 6.0.4 is due for release
*YP 5.3.2 is queued for QA
*YP 5.0.21 is under review
*YP 6.0 M2 is due to build when we have patches merged
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
*We have two open high issues which need further work that will block M3:
*Reproducibility issues between different build archs is looking much better, we have remaining issues in systemtap, rust, rpm-sequoia, mesa and rpm.
**x86 kvm broken on Fedora 43 (cpu features issue?) (#16074)
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**AB-INT: opkg-build segmentation fault (memory corruption in pseudo?) (#16078)
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
*We also have issues we need to resolve before release:
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
**Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup
*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.
**Splitting wic into an external tool
*Big thanks to Tim Orling for key fixes for layerindex and error reporting
**Kernel rust support
*Builds are now working on Fedora 45 thanks to a pseudo fix and fetcher tweaks for wget v2
**Switching to pkg-config
*UK and European daylight savings time finishes this Sunday, some meeting times track US Pacific timezone so double check your calendars next week.
**Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk)
*The CFP is now open for the OpenEmbedded Workshop to be held in Brussels on Feb 1st 2027.
**How to improve DEBUG_BUILD?
*Thanks to everyone who attended the Dev Day or came and saw us in Prague. This was the largest Yocto Dev Day so far!
**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.
