Changelog (https://mesonbuild.com/meson-python/changelog.html): 0.17.1 - Update tests to work with newly released pyproject-metadata 0.9.0. Fix tests to work when not executed in a git work tree. Daniele Nicolodi — 23-10-2024. 0.17.0 - Refuse to build wheels targeting the limited API and free-threaded CPython: the free-threaded CPython build does not support the limited API yet. - Always use UTF-8 encoding for writing Meson native and cross files. Always use UTF-8 encoding for reading read Meson introspection data and pyproject.toml. - Do not include uncommitted changes when creating source distributions. Previously, uncommitted changes to files under version control were included, but not untracked files. There was no strong use case for this behavior and it was too surprising to keep it. - Make source distribution reproducible: use the modification time of pyproject.toml for the generated files in the source distribution archives. - Disable the abi3 wheel tag for PyPy when building wheels targeting the limited API: PyPy supports the limited API but not the stable ABI. - Raise ImportError when the package rebuild fails when importing an editable install. - Fix the wheel platform tag for GraalPy. - Add .gitignore and .hgignore files to build directory if it is empty. - Allow install_subdir() of missing directories. Christian Clauss, Daniele Nicolodi, Jonathan J. Helmus, Leo Singer, Loïc Estève, Michael Simacek, Ralf Gommers, Simon McVittie — 19-10-2024.

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.

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.
