*Stephen is unavailable at the moment, please refer any queries to Richard
*Stephen is going to be unavailable for several weeks, please refer any queries to Richard
*YP 2.6.2 was rebuilt as rc4 to include the boost upgrade revert and is due to be released today. The YP 2.6.2 rc3/4 report is summarized at https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/yocto/2019-April/044827.html and the results are at https://autobuilder.yocto.io/pub/releases/yocto-2.6.2.rc4/testresults/.
*YP 2.6.2 was released!
*YP 2.5.3 is currently going through the QA process.
*YP 2.5.3 is likely to be released imminently
*We’re sad to announce that we will be removing eclipse plugin builds from the autobuilder and will not be including the plugin in any future project releases. This is due to a lack of anyone able to help work on the plugin development, bug fixing or release.
*YP 2.7 rc2 (warrior) is currently going through QA.
*The key fixes mentioned in last week’s status have been merged into 2.7.
*The final two members of the new YP TSC were elected, Denys and Armin. The TSC will therefore now start to discuss how its going to establish itself and operate.
*A key bug in pseudo was identified which may be the root cause of the long standing glibc-locale uid “host contamination” issue. Many thanks to Peter and Otavio for the help in debugging that. A separate fix should also ensure pseudo works with newer distro coreutils and glibc versions.
*Huge thanks to Joshua Watt for diving in and helping file some ptest bugs and helping sort some missing tweaks with resulttool, it was just appreciated
*YP 2.7 rc2 (warrior) was built successfully and is currently going through the QA process after 2.5.3 is done.
*Patches are continuing to flow into master, slightly impeded by holidays/vacation in some parts of the world.
*The ptest results in 2.7 are much more stable than ever before with results being consistent from build to build. At the start of 2.8 we can make some further improvements so we take advantage of this and build upon it to reduce regressions in the system.
*WDD, our bug tracking metric is sharply rising as there are few people helping with bugs.
*In an effort to keep the patch queue under control, patches are merging to master.
*The list of issues from last week of worrying things we lack resources to improve upon remains:
**Intermittent autobuilder failures (fork running out of resources - which resources?, oe-selftest intermittent issues, gpg signing resource problems, occasional PR server failure and more)
**Build-appliance testing issues (show up on each QA report across multiple releases)
**40% valgrind ptest failures
**Known bitbake memory resident bugs
**Other ptest failures
*The 2.8 planning discussions are starting and there is a google doc summarising the discussions so far: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CNEKA4d0eT6-e0hnS2pwi7xdZ5_t6smpZO2HbaJGXbU/
