know what’s the plan to make the YP 2.5 branch available in this Yocto

I am still working on build failure and integrating the i.MX8 stuff so
sumo is not ready for use yet.

Hi Otavio,

Could you kindly provide us with a status update on this?

I noticed no build errors on a build with current head of meta-freescale
master branch with head of Poky Sumo branch:

...
I need to fix WIC support for i.MX28 before branching it also make
sure Qt and all works.

Agreed, i.MX28 should work and Qt should at least function (even if not accelerated) before a sumo release can be made.

Is currently only the i.mx8 support holding you back? In that case, I would
kindly suggest creating the sumo branch right now and adding the i.mx8
support later on.

It would also give the oppertunity to merge patches like
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-freescale/2018-May/022537.html
to meta-freescale master to match current Poky master.

i.MX8 is a huge addition and once we branch sumo it is going to be too
risk to backport. I don't have a big problem in let it for next
release but it is something people must to agree uppon it.

In that case, I agree that i.mx8 support should wait for the next release. Waiting from now for considerable time to release m-f sumo would make people start new developments on Rocko...
