(#16078 <https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16078>) - Failure to generate regression reports in release builds - We also have issues we need to resolve before M3: - Allowing non-destructive git fetcher updates for bitbake-setup. - Splitting wic into an external tool. - Kernel rust support. - Switching to pkg-config. - Deprecation of ltp (upstream dropped runltp and mandate kirk) - How to improve DEBUG_BUILD? - DISTRO_FEATURES defaults improvements. - SBOM/cve-check changes. - Reconcile poky and OE-Core defaults templates. - Switch to internal VNC server in QEMU - update to glibc 2.43 so we can release a new uninative - We identified a number of timeout/buffer related issues in and around ptest-runner and whilst we’re still in early stages of testing, these look to significantly improve autobuilder intermittent ptest failures, particularly on qemuriscv64. - We’re working through the backlog of patches and intermittent build failures are still problematic. We continue to struggle for bandwidth for changes needing in depth review/feedback. This could impact features making it into the LTS. - On scarthgap, we have updated to openssl 3.5 since that is still maintained - The project has a booth at Embedded World this week, feel free to come and say Hi if you’re there! Want to contribute? We would appreciate help with the following areas: - We have several open issues for pseudo and limited maintainer time to work on them. Help from someone familiar with systems programming in C would be greatly appreciated. https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?list_id=661406&priority=High&priority=Medium%2B&product=Pseudo&query_format=advanced&resolution=--- - There are a large number of intermittent failures on our autobuilder, any help with investigating, reproducing or solving these issues would be welcome! https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/abint/ - Many recipes in openembedded-core would benefit from a new recipe maintainer. Please look at https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and see if you can adopt any of the unassigned recipes. - For more ways to contribute, see https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oxKWxLorfF813h82mK6yKTIHeBp_-9owFuCWbzgjOk/edit?usp=sharing New to the project? - We have a list of issues we think are good places to start contributing: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=NEWCOMER Tracking Metrics: - WDD 2866 (last week 2908) ( https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/combo.html) - OE-Core/Poky Patch Metrics - Total patches found: 1081 (last week 1103) - Patches in the Pending State: 151 (14%) [last week 151 (14%)] - https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/ YP 6.0 Milestone Dates: - YP 6.0 M2 is in QA. - YP 6.0 M3 Build Date 2026-03-23 - YP 6.0 M3 Release Date 2026-04-08 - YP 6.0 M4 Build Date 2026-04-13 - YP 6.0 M4 Release Date 2026-05-04 Upcoming dot releases: - YP 5.0.16 is released. - YP 5.3.2 is released. - YP 4.0.34 is in QA. - YP 5.3.3 Build Date 2026-03-16 - YP 5.3.3 Release Date 2026-04-01 - YP 5.0.17 Build Date 2026-03-30 - YP 5.0.17 Release Date 2026-04-15 - YP 4.0.35 Build Date 2026-04-06 - YP 4.0.35 Release Date 2026-04-22 - YP 5.3.4 Build Date 2026-04-20 - YP 5.3.4 Release Date 2026-05-06 - YP 5.0.18 Build Date 2026-04-27 - YP 5.0.18 Release Date 2026-05-13 - YP 5.0.19 Build Date 2026-05-26 - YP 5.0.19 Release Date 2026-06-05 The Yocto Project’s technical governance is through its Technical Steering Committee, more information is available at: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/TSC The Status reports are now stored on the wiki at: https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Weekly_Status [If anyone has suggestions for other information you’d like to see on this weekly status update, let us know!] Thanks, *Stephen K.
