...if you're afraid to change something it is clearly poorly designed. -- Martin Fowler
Yoe 2023.08 release 🚀
The latest monthly
release of yoe distro
is available now. This release contains a major rework of the projects structure
where projects are now moved into the toplevel conf directory and corresponding
envsetup changes are also made to detect projects. This release also has
toolchain component upgrades e.g. binutils 2.41, Go - 1.20.7, glibc 2.38. The
rPI4 reference image yoe-kiosk-image is now using QT6 instead of QT5. The Go
runtime has been fixed such that Go applications do not crash the Go linker
during build on ARM64. A spurious rebuilt of Clang compiler when multilib is
enabled is fixed as well.
