Key Status/Updates:
- YP 4.2 rc3 has passed QA and is pending TSC approval for release.
- YP 4.1.4 is now in QA.
- Patches are merging into master for 4.3.
- Emails to all currently listed maintainers have been sent to check the entries are up to date. If anyone is interested in taking on maintenance of any unassigned recipes, please send a patch.
- We discovered warnings were not being correctly handled on the autobuilder after the buildbot controller upgrade. That should now be fixed but it means some regressions may have crept in, we’re working to confirm if that is the case or not.
- We’re in the process of adding checks to ensure that ptests returning no test results trigger warnings. This should ensure we catch this situation earlier since ptests should always return at least one test result. python3-cryptography is an example of a recipe that recently regressed unnoticed in this way.
Ways to contribute:
- As people are likely aware, the project has a number of components which are either unmaintained, or have people with little to no time trying to keep them alive. These components include: patchtest, layerindex, devtool, toaster, wic, oeqa, autobuilder, CROPs containers, pseudo and more. Many have open bugs. Help is welcome in trying to better look after these components!
- 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 4.2. See: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Bug_Triage#Medium.2B_4.2_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.
- 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.

- We have a growing number of bugs in bugzilla, any help with them is appreciated.
