Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 4.0.20 was released
  • YP 5.1 M2 is due to be released
  • A new wiki page summarizing options for meta-gplv2 replacement was created: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Meta-gpl2_layer_replacement (thanks Khem)
  • A document giving a brief overview of the Yocto Project Autobuilder/Infrastructure has been shared: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/images/0/04/Yocto_Project_Autobuilder.pdf and will be discussed on today’s engineering sync call.
  • Autobuilder intermittent issues continue to cause concern but if we don’t have anyone able to work on them there is little we can do.
  • A bug in pseudo around the resolution of symlinks was identified and a fix merged, thanks to the reporter for sending a good test case!
  • We cleaned up a lot of python dependencies and added some extra tests, thanks Ross.
  • The rustdoc reproducibility issue was found and fixed, thanks Sundeep! We will now be able to upgrade rust to newer versions although further issues remain in some newer versions.
  • The new mesa version requires meta-clang for the intel drivers. We need to make a decision on how to handle this, clang is likely to make its way to core at some point but work is needed to make the overrides suitable for core before that can happen.
