Key Status/Updates:
  • YP 3.1.16 was released
  • YP 3.4.4 passed QA and has approval for release
  • We’ve continued to struggle with the git CVE fix issues and ended up changing the approach taken resolve it.
  • Whilst the git issue was breaking reproducible builds on the autobuilder, two other issues started occurring in reproducible builds, making clean builds hard to regain for master.
  • The update to gcc 12 has merged after clean test runs on the autobuilder. Thanks to Khem and Bruce for working though various issues in particular.
  • A lot of general version upgrades were merged bringing us more into sync with various upstreams, thanks Alex.
  • Help is very much welcome in trying to resolve our autobuilder intermittent issues. 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

Tip of the Week:
  • The scripts in ${WORKDIR}/temp/run.XXX for shell tasks can be quickly hacked and used for standalone debugging by replacing the function call at the end with “bash -i” which will then drop you into a shell environment matching the task being debugged (minus the fakeroot context). 
  • Bonus marks for anyone sending a patch to add the fakeroot context as comments at the start of the scripts.
  • (send any tips you’d like to see here to Stephen or Richard)
