[OE-core][PATCH] default-distrovars.inc: Switch to the canonical website domain

[Michael Halstead]

yoctoproject.org redirects to www.yoctoproject.org. Switching to the
true domain we avoid an unnessary redirect and avoid certifcate errors
on a default Debian 11 installation.

Hi Michael,

Thanks!

Can I ask you to modify also the URLs in the test cases?
We have two occurrences in meta/lib/oeqa/buildtools/cases/https.py.

Best regards,
Mathieu

Same patch which does seem to do what Mathieu is asking for.

Re: [OE-core][PATCH] default-distrovars.inc: Switch to the canonical website domain

[Michael Halstead]

It's probably best to take Deepak Rathore's patch instead. Avoiding
redirects on a connectivity check is a good idea in general.

I want to follow up and describe the specific issue that cropped up on
the autobuilder for history's sake. Our redirection service switched
from using ISRG Root X1 to ISRG Root X2 yesterday. This is less
compatible but more efficient (https://letsencrypt.org/certificates/).
ISRG Root X2 is not in ca-certificates (20230311) which is the current
package on Debian 11 bookworm and is not likely to change. It also
appears AlmaLinux 8 was unable to connect after the change.
