1Release notes for Yocto-5.0.16 (Scarthgap)
2------------------------------------------
3
4This release breaks support for Ubuntu 20.04 as a :ref:`compatible host
5<ref-manual/system-requirements:Supported Linux Distributions>`. The Ubuntu 20.04
6Linux kernel headers are not recent enough to support the latest :ref:`pseudo
7<overview-manual/concepts:fakeroot and pseudo>` fixes.
8
9Ubuntu 20.04 is End-of-Life since 31 May 2025. Impacted users are encouraged to
10upgrade to an actively supported host distribution. See
11:doc:`/ref-manual/system-requirements` for more information on compatible hosts.
12
13Alternatively, a fix has been merged to scarthgap branch and can be applied on top of this
14release:
