Automatic Upgrade Helper Announcement

Automatic Upgrade Helper Announcement

[Aníbal Limón]

Hi all,

I'm glad to announce the enabling of Automatic Upgrade Helper (a.k.a. 
AUH), the AUH is a service
that provides recipe upgrades and will be run on weekly basis.

If you are a maintainer (listed in [1]) you will receive AUH emails with 
Recipe upgrades when AUH
detects that upgrade is needed.

The development of AUH continues with adding capabilities like 
buildhistory support and image
testing for upgraded recipes planned for Yocto 1.9 release [2], 
contributions are welcome the code
can be found at [3].

Any comment or concern please contact me.

Cheers,
     alimon

I'm currently doing a related activity - going through oe-core recipes 
in alphabetical order, and making sure that upstream version information 
for them is correct.

I've found a few cases where the upstream check is performed on a stale 
directory (so the recipe is reported 'up to date' even though it's not), 
or the reported upstream version is totally bogus [1], or the upstream 
version is 'unknown' even though it can be retrieved with a correct 
entry in package_regex.inc. Expect patches to come this way soon.
