We've added support for the following new Erlang/OTP releases:

meta-erlang branchErlang/OTP version
scarthgap25.3.2.12, 26.2.5, 27.0
master25.3.2.12, 26.2.5, 27.0

And the following Elixir releases:

meta-erlang branchElixir version
scarthgap1.13.4, 1.14.4, 1.15.7, 1.16.3
master1.13.4, 1.14.4, 1.15.7, 1.16.3

I was planing to also add Erlang/OTP 27.0 to LTS kirkstone release. However it is not feasible as Erlang/OTP 27 uses autoconf 2.72 and kirkstone uses 2.71. Thus, there is an incompatible related to build system.

dunfell24.3.4.15
kirkstone24.3.4.15, 25.3.2.8, 26.2.1
master25.3.2.8, 26.2.1

In additional to those new versions, now it's possible to read Erlang/OTP documentation in Erlang shell. The docs .chunk files get generated during build time and one could easily install it by adding the package erlang-modules-dev.

Yocto Project has released a new version 4.2 (Mickledore). As consequence meta-erlang brings a new branch mickledore updating most of the recipes. mickledore release is not a LTS release and community support will be available until November 2023.

We've also upgraded to the latest Erlang/OTP and Elixir releases supporting the following new Erlang/OTP releases:

  • Erlang/OTP 26.0.1
  • Erlang/OTP 25.3.2.2
  • Elixir 1.14.4

It's worth mentioning the meta-erlang master has also been updated.

We've added support for the following new Erlang/OTP releases:

meta-erlang branchErlang/OTP version
dunfell24.3.4.11
kirkstone24.3.4.11, 25.3.2
langdale25.3.2

Removed recipes:

  • For langdale the recipes ejabberd and emqx have been removed due the lack of supporting cross-compilation build in a stable way.

Updated recipes:

  • For langdale the following recipes have been updated: lux, vernemq, yaws, tsung, riak, couchdb. It is important to mention about langdale EOL in May 2023. So, this branch will not receive updates.

It has been decided:

  • Dropped support to Erlang/OTP 24 in langdale. Due the lack of deterministic build flags in 24. Elixir 1.12 has also been dropped (because it dependes on Erlang/OTP 24).

New Erlang releases 24.3.4.8, 25.1.2.1, 25.2.1

kirkstone24.3.4.8, 25.1.2.1, 25.2.1
langdale24.3.4.8, 25.1.2.1, 25.2.1

Fixed bugs:

To be decided:

  • Yocto Langdale release has enabled reproducible build checks. Erlang/OTP from 25 and later implements special flags to fix reproducible issues. But Erlang/OTP 24 does not have these special flags as a consequence langdale Erlang/OTP 24 builds warns about: packages contains reference to TMPDIR [buildpaths]. There are two paths that we could get. One is to drop Erlang/OTP 24 support OR disable QA buildpaths checking.

This new website is based on Docusaurus documentation framework. The previous site was using docsify, which is also great. But Docusaurus address others concerns when writing documentation for open source project.

So, the site has a new frontend page and a blog session where we want to add latest meta-erlang release highlights. The documentation session is pretty much the same plus some improvements on Introduction chapter.
