Next Deadline: YP 3.1 M1 build Dec. 2, 2019

Next Team Meetings:

Key Status/Updates:

  • YP 3.0.1 is out of QA with good test results so should be released soon.
  • We have set a deadline of Monday 9th December for removing python2 support from OE-Core, a separate email was sent out about this. The patches to do this are in master-next and they remove python and python2 from HOSTTOOLS.
  • Reproducible builds are now enabled by default in poky, we should also consider this for the default in OE-Core.
  • Hash equivalence continues to undergo testing and further work.
  • We’re likely to build M1 after the python 2 removal is merged next week, also giving time for the hash equivalence work to move forward further.
  • Intermittent build failures continue to hamper builds, particularly combined with the above issues and as few people are available to attempt to debug and resolve them.
  • The TSC is working on LTS plans, productive discussions have been had and a new policy on handling this and stable releases should be available in the coming weeks.
  • We are continuing to collect ideas for YP 3.1 in this document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UKZIGe88-eq3-pOPtkAvFAegbQDzhy_f4ye64yjnABc/edit?usp=sharing
  • If anyone has any status items for the project they’d like to add to the weekly reports, please email Richard and Stephen.
