Changelog: 0.24: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2025-02/msg00010.html 0.25: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2025-05/msg00000.html 0.26: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2025-07/msg00007.html - gettext-minimal-native recipe adapted to the new macro name (aclocal_DATA -> macros_DATA) - install Makevars.template to gettext-minimal-native to be able to update missing variables The file is renamed in the desitanion to Makevars.template.minimal, to avoid clashing with the full gettext package (some recipes have both as dependency). - autotools.bbclass: search for all po folders, and update the Makefile.in.in file in each of them. This is required, because without this the old Makefile.in.in files in these non ${S}/po folders are not updated with the new version of gettext, and the compilation routinely fails due to this. As part of the same change, also concatenate the source's Makevars files with the gettext Makevars.template: this allows all variables to be defined, even the new ones that the source didn't contain originally. First set the gettext template, and then append the source's original Makevars to it, so it should override the variables that it was setting originally, and keep the new variables at their default value. - Add new PACKAGECONFIG to use libselinux, and also fix libselinux discovery in autotools (use pkg-config instead of autotools discovery, because autotools' library search doesn't respect custom sysroot) Ptest results: ======================= All 626 tests passed (40 tests were not run) ======================= DURATION: 36 END: /usr/lib/gettext/ptest 2025-08-30T17:49 STOP: ptest-runner TOTAL: 1 FAIL: 0 With the previous version: All 545 tests passed (34 tests were not run) (From OE-Core rev: f4b240b4d2c4b424e5dc8f739d8702c736f32d13) Signed-off-by: Gyorgy Sarvari <skandigraun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mathieu Dubois-Briand <mathieu.dubois-briand@bootlin.com> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a pre-packaged build system and development environment which is used as a development and validation tool by the Yocto Project. It features support for building customised embedded style device images and custom containers. There are reference demo images ranging from X11/GTK+ to Weston, commandline and more. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK suitable for IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of BSP layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way. Many layers are available and can be found through the layer index.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation, the 'meta-yocto' layer which has configuration and hardware support components. These components are all part of the Yocto Project and OpenEmbedded ecosystems.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at https://docs.yoctoproject.org/
OpenEmbedded is the build architecture used by Poky and the Yocto project. For information about OpenEmbedded, see the OpenEmbedded website.
Contribution Guidelines

Where to Send Patches
As Poky is an integration repository (built using a tool called combo-layer), patches against the various components should be sent to their respective upstreams:
OpenEmbedded-Core (files in meta/, meta-selftest/, meta-skeleton/, scripts/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/
- Mailing list: openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org
BitBake (files in bitbake/):
- Git repository: https://git.openembedded.org/bitbake/
- Mailing list: bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
Documentation (files in documentation/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/yocto-docs/
- Mailing list: docs@lists.yoctoproject.org
meta-yocto (files in meta-poky/, meta-yocto-bsp/):
- Git repository: https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/meta-yocto
- Mailing list: poky@lists.yoctoproject.org
If in doubt, check the openembedded-core git repository for the content you intend to modify as most files are from there unless clearly one of the above categories. Before sending, be sure the patches apply cleanly to the current git repository branch in question.
