*YP 6.0.3 is in QA.
*YP 6.1 is due for release
*YP 6.1 M3 is due in one week and this will be the feature freeze point for YP 6.1.
*YP 6.0.4 is due for release
*For 6.1 M3 our plans are to merge rpm 6, merge openssl 4 and update to the 7.2 kernel. If there are any other major changes planned, please let us know ASAP!
*YP 5.0.21 is under review
*AI scrapers and bots continue to impact the infrastructure, taking huge amounts of time for our sysadmins and with a significant cost impact to the project.
*Patches for 6.2 have started merging into master
*We continue to try and keep up to date with upstream releases through the AUH, big thanks to those sending version updates and fixing version update issues. It is worth noting that the ‘success’ updates do still need work on the commit message changelogs and much of this work is being pushed to Richard.
*Reproducibility issues between different build archs is looking much better, we have remaining issues in systemtap, rust, rpm-sequoia, mesa and rpm.
*There are two AB-INT issues which are in a position where others could now help, as detailed in https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/message/242105:
*There are issues where we could accept help:
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart
**aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue
**Remaining github.com references in bitbake-selftest
We get a lot of comments about these being hard to reproduce or work on, in both cases, these have specific well defined things which need to be done and a basic understanding of what the issue relates to, if not the actual fix.
*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.
*Remaining intermittent build failures of concern:
*Big thanks to Tim Orling for key fixes for layerindex and error reporting
**other qemu ‘hang’ type issues on ARM
*Builds are now working on Fedora 45 thanks to a pseudo fix and fetcher tweaks for wget v2
**sometimes yocto-check-layer is showing checksum mismatch issues
*UK and European daylight savings time finishes this Sunday, some meeting times track US Pacific timezone so double check your calendars next week.
**intermittent ptest failures in many recipes
*The CFP is now open for the OpenEmbedded Workshop to be held in Brussels on Feb 1st 2027.
*Thanks to everyone who attended the Dev Day or came and saw us in Prague. This was the largest Yocto Dev Day so far!
