Known Issues in Yocto-5.0.10

  • There is an issue where the target libsoup-2.4 build may fail if apachectl is present on the build host. The issue only affects test binaries which aren’t actually used. The issue can be fixed by disabling the tests or updating to more recent changes on the scarthgap branch which fix this.
