Hi Randolph, Thanks for the new version. It looks like it got better. Still, we got a few issues on the autobuilder. First, issue, probably because of nopasswdlogin group: NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies 2025-12-19 08:42:54,839 - oe-selftest - INFO - ERROR: Nothing RPROVIDES 'xserver-nodm-init' (but /srv/pokybuild/yocto-worker/reproducible/build/layers/openembedded-core/meta/recipes-graphics/packagegroups/packagegroup-core-x11.bb RDEPENDS on or otherwise requires it) 2025-12-19 08:42:54,839 - oe-selftest - INFO - xserver-nodm-init was skipped: Recipe xserver-nodm-init, package xserver-nodm-init: system groupname "nopasswdlogin" does not have a static ID defined.
