segment of a component-ID * docs: Drop outdated information from l10n quickstart guide Bugfixes: * meson: check for docbook xsl stylesheets * Fix tweaking of appstream.pc when building as subproject * Fix crash in asc_l10n_search_translations_qt() * qt: Make Qt6 dependency a system dependency. * meson: do not rely on an exe wrapper * meson: do not -I/usr/include when !stemmer * meson: Prevent building attempts with MSVC * meson: Use an SPDX license indentifier in project(license:) * Add meson overrides * compose: Set lower-cased CID for synthesized components again * compose: Set lower-cased CID in desktop-entry parse function * compose: Honor prefix in font search * compose: Select the correct default icon glyphs for fonts * Don't crash when non-YAML documents are read as YAML * Do not override default-priority when parsing multiple metadata files * Ensure stemmer always has the right locale and token-search works * Require a more recent libxmlb to avoid crashes * Rename component get_releases to indicate that releases may not be loaded from the web * Prevent string-id validation functions from matching source comments * Don't define _POSIX_C_SOURCE when building for NetBSD Miscellaneous: * Explain metainfo-ancient error in more detail * Make sed invocation more portable * Add FreeBSD CI * Allow variable shadowing in C++ code * Drop the catchall as-enums unit * vapi: Drop unneeded metadata * Make AsMetadata return a component box for multiple components * apt: Make item descriptions more human-friendly * Streamline README Contributors: Aleix

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
Please refer to our contributor guide here: https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/ for full details on how to submit changes.
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.
