There are around 30 issues left as shown by the autobuilder tests (down from ~90) so great progress. - python3-six recipe moved to meta-oe, it provides python 2.x era support so nothing should be needing that now - references are a sign that dependencies probably need updating but it is still available if needed. - There are issues which are in a position where others could now help: - Matchbox-wm segfault/xserver restart - aarch64/x86-64 build host contamination/reproducibility issue - thanks for the work and fixes so far on this. - See Richard’s email on the list https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/topic/areas_we_could_do_with/121159956 which details some others too We get a lot of comments about these being hard to reproduce or work on, in both cases, these have specific well defined things which need to be done and a basic understanding of what the issue relates to, if not the actual fix. 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 2640 (last week 2647) ( https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/charts/combo.html) - OE-Core/Poky Patch Metrics - Total patches found: 1055 (last week 1054) - Patches in the Pending State: 137 (13%) [last week 135 (13%)] - https://valkyrie.yocto.io/pub/non-release/patchmetrics/ Upcoming development releases - 6.1 M3: is due for release - 6.1.0: - Build Date (M4): w/c 2026-10-12 - Release Date: w/c 2026-11-02 Upcoming dot releases: - YP 6.0.4 - Build Date w/c 2026-09-28 - Release Date w/c 2026-10-12 - YP 5.0.21 - Build Date w/c 2026-10-05 - Release Date w/c 2026-10-19 - For future release dates, see https://wiki.yoctoproject.org/wiki/Release_calendar 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 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.
