Key Status/Updates:
- YP 4.1 M2 was released
- YP 3.1.18 passed QA and is due to be released
- The debug file mapping issues have moved slightly further forward thanks to some help from Ross but are stalling due to insufficient developer time available to resolve the issues.
- Some rust toolchain improvements did merge, including an automated rust toolchain test. The bulk of the rework is stalled on a handful of remaining issues, particularly a couple of reproducibility problems but also a mips n32 toolchain issue.
- We have one open CVE on master against qemu, help to backport that fix would be very welcome to keep the numbers down. CVEs in kirkstone (LTS) significantly reduced.
- Some development workflow changes around the eSDK workflow merged. There are also some layer workflow patches still pending review.
- Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. You can see the list of failures we’re continuing to see by searching for the “AB-INT” tag in bugzilla: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=AB-INT
Ways to contribute:
- There are bugs identified as possible for newcomers to the project: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Newcomers
- There are bugs that are currently unassigned for YP 4.1 See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.1_Unassigned_Enhancements.2FBugs
- We’d welcome new maintainers for recipes in OE-Core. Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to “Unassigned” soon to help facilitate this.
