We'd probably do this at the end of the update process. This would build on the recently added "layer updates" feature. We'd probably also want a check to see if errors have occurred for almost all layers, in which case we would skip individual notifications and send one to an administrator since there's probably a more serious underlying issue (a bug or misconfiguration). 97195 1 tim.orling 2023-11-02 23:53:12 +0000 An example of a "systemic" warning is when the following in conf/local.conf is enabled: #require conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc and the version of openembedded-core is new enough to include: https://git.yoctoproject.org/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/defaultsetup.conf with: include conf/distro/include/maintainers.inc This basically only happened if rrs was enabled, but was a non-obvious thing to track down. And layers.openembedded.org _does_ have rrs enabled. Emailing every layer maintainer or opt-in about those warnings would have been spam to be certain. 104334 2 tim.orling 2026-02-17 19:04:17 +0000 Still valid.
