The poky repository master branch is no longer being updated.
You can either:
a) switch to individual clones of bitbake, openembedded-core, meta-yocto and yocto-docs
b) use the new bitbake-setup
You can find information about either approach in our documentation:
https://docs.yoctoproject.org/
Note that "poky" the distro setting is still available in meta-yocto as
before and we continue to use and maintain that.
Long live Poky!
Some further information on the background of this change can be found
in: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-architecture/message/2179

| 7 | Welcome | ||
| 8 | ======= | ||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | Welcome to the Yocto Project Development Tasks Manual. This manual | ||
| 11 | provides relevant procedures necessary for developing in the Yocto | ||
| 12 | Project environment (i.e. developing embedded Linux images and | ||
| 13 | user-space applications that run on targeted devices). This manual groups | ||
| 14 | related procedures into higher-level sections. Procedures can consist of | ||
| 15 | high-level steps or low-level steps depending on the topic. | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | This manual provides the following: | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | - Procedures that help you get going with the Yocto Project; for | ||
| 20 | example, procedures that show you how to set up a build host and work | ||
| 21 | with the Yocto Project source repositories. | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | - Procedures that show you how to submit changes to the Yocto Project. | ||
| 24 | Changes can be improvements, new features, or bug fixes. | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | - Procedures related to "everyday" tasks you perform while developing | ||
| 27 | images and applications using the Yocto Project, such as | ||
| 28 | creating a new layer, customizing an image, writing a new recipe, | ||
| 29 | and so forth. | ||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | This manual does not provide the following: | ||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | - Redundant step-by-step instructions: For example, the | ||
| 34 | :doc:`/sdk-manual/index` manual contains detailed | ||
| 35 | instructions on how to install an SDK, which is used to develop | ||
| 36 | applications for target hardware. | ||
| 37 | |||
| 38 | - Reference or conceptual material: This type of material resides in an | ||
| 39 | appropriate reference manual. As an example, system variables are | ||
| 40 | documented in the :doc:`/ref-manual/index`. | ||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | - Detailed public information not specific to the Yocto Project: For | ||
| 43 | example, exhaustive information on how to use the Git version | ||
| 44 | control system is better covered with Internet searches and official Git | ||
| 45 | documentation than through the Yocto Project documentation. | ||
| 46 | |||
| 47 | Other Information | ||
| 48 | ================= | ||
| 49 | |||
| 50 | Because this manual presents information for many different topics, | ||
| 51 | supplemental information is recommended for full comprehension. For | ||
| 52 | introductory information on the Yocto Project, see the | ||
| 53 | :yocto_home:`Yocto Project Website <>`. If you want to build an image with no | ||
| 54 | knowledge of Yocto Project as a way of quickly testing it out, see the | ||
| 55 | :doc:`/brief-yoctoprojectqs/index` document. | ||
| 56 | |||
| 57 | For a comprehensive list of links and other documentation, see the | ||
| 58 | ":ref:`ref-manual/resources:links and related documentation`" | ||
| 59 | section in the Yocto Project Reference Manual. | ||
