[PATCH RFC v2 2/2] default-registry: consolidate OE and Poky release configs

Ernest Van Hoecke <[email protected]> Thu, 18 Jun 2026 20:04:05 +0200
Newsgroups org.openembedded.lists.bitbake-devel
Message-ID <20260618-bb-setup-source-choices-integrated-tests-v2-2-66b3b438f073@toradex.com>
From: Ernest Van Hoecke <[email protected]>

Replace the release-specific OE nodistro and Poky registry files with
one configuration file for each project. The new files use
source-choices to select the master, whinlatter or wrynose source set.

This keeps the shared setup configuration in one place while preserving
the different source revisions and expiry metadata for each release.
