The layer index updates leave each repository on whichever branch they updated last, so the RRS scripts parse whatever happens to be there. On a test instance meta-openembedded and meta-intel were checked out at dunfell while upstream history worked on master: 1010 recipes failed with "file ... not found" (the master recipe file names don't exist on dunfell) or "contains an operation using the old override syntax". Fix: unless nocheckout is set, have load_recipes() check out the layer branch, and the branches of the layers it depends on, after init_parser() and before parsing, as update_layer.py does. 107462 1 tim.orling 2026-11-15 00:46:35 +0000 Patch 4/6 of the series sent to yocto-patches, under review: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261115003506.53654-1-tim.orling@konsulko.com/
