Upgrading from sumo to more recent version
Maik Vermeulen
Hi,
After some questions on this mailing list, we got comments on our usage of quite an old yocto poky version: sumo.
What are the steps to upgrade to a newer version?
We have quite some of our own recipes, and also some proprietary third party patches.
Do we go version by version from sumo to the most recent one, or big bang?
Are there tools to for example fix and replace the old notation by the new one?

available.
Personally, I'd probably try working with the last release or last LTS
and then try and get everything you need working with that rather than
doing it incrementally but a lot depends on your experience/needs and
the kinds of changes you have.
Cheers,
