Pending... what exactly?

Pending merge

If a patch is pending merge, the correct status is 'Submitted' (with a
link). If it's already been merged, the correct status is 'Backport'
(also with a link). 'Pending' is a frowned-upon status used only when
there's a genuine obstacle to upstream submission.

I had no idea, will stay away from Pending then. Thanks.


In other words, upstream first, please. This is clearly not something
that oe-core should not be carrying and maintaining and rebasing.

Upstream merged it, see https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/commit/ee3a79c6952f8ca649c286c7f76639d9d1dedaad

You need to resubmit here with the correct upstream-status then.


Will do, I am just not sure on the overall patch submission procedure and what OW in general thinks.

https://docs.yoctoproject.org/contributor-guide/recipe-style-guide.html#patch-upstream-status in the new contributor guide covers it pretty well now.
