*There are several issues which have arisen in the last week which mean we will need a second release candidate build:
*YP 3.3.6, the final hardknott release will build after 4.0.
**edgerouter didn’t boot with rc1 due to a kernel patch issue
**uninative didn’t work with libstdc++ from gcc 12 so we have an upgraded version
**there were several CVE fixes that came in (libarchive, gzip, xz)
**a key intermittent autobuilder fix was identified. <br/>
Not all of these were release blockers but together they mean an rc2 is appropriate.
*If anyone is aware of other issues in rc1 that need to be addressed in rc2, please let us know ASAP.

Key Status/Updates:

  • The next release, kirkstone will be 4.0 (previously known as 3.5) and will be bitbake 2.0 based.
  • The third release candidate build for YP 4.0 (3.5) is now in QA.
  • rc1 had several issues such as edgerouter not booting, a uninative gcc 12 issue and broken icons in sato that made it inappropriate for release. rc2 triggered a number of autobuilder intermittent issues, there were tweaks to some of the rc1 fixes needed, several CVEs and a systemd/bluetooth issue that resulted in an rc3.
  • YP 3.3.6, the final hardknott release will build after 4.0.
  • YP 4.1 planning document is available for review at: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-g7DatSdmIETwD3xFSCxV7MbWVVkpQvQ788mIr1MPTI/edit?usp=sharing
  • If people see intermittent issues in their own builds, particularly if they’re the same as intermittent issues seen on the autobuilder, please do comment in the bugs mentioning when they happen as the frequency information does help us prioritize fixing the most common issues.
  • Intermittent issues continue to be at high levels and help is very much welcome in trying to resolve them. 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 did work out the cause of the infamous tinfoil wait_event intermittent issue.
