The part where I can easily imagine someone more junior than myself being led astray is when the two Web engineers were promising you could ask the agent if all these BitBake rules and recipes will all work with no conflicts, and I’m thinking, ok, I can hallucinate that it’s going to work myself

What I was trying to make sure I'd gotten right when upgrading the Linux kernel config from 5.15 to 6.18 which Yocto "simplifies" by making an entire repo of nested kernel config fragments that apply on top of each other based on BitBake environment variables. Yocto merges several layers together.

GNU software doesn’t have the best track record for backwards compatibility. I’ve had to deal with two bits of nonsense in my work project upgrading from Yocto 4.0 to 6.0. The old Yocto version won’t work on Ubuntu 24.04 or newer because GNU tar 1.35 gives weird errors in the bitbake environment.

Whatever they changed in tar might’ve been for security reasons because the latest Ubuntu 22.04 security update to tar 1.34 also has this issue, which was fixed on the Yocto/BitBake side in 5.0 (and possibly in a later 4.0 update I don’t have, idk).
The other issue was with the “efitools” recipe.

Bitbake is a huge Python-based build system used by Yocto, which is a bit like Gentoo Linux but for embedded systems. You write recipes that define variables or add custom build steps, all of which run inside the cross-build environment it sets up, with no network access unless you ask for it.

Alternatively, you can run Yocto inside Docker using Ubuntu 22.04 as a base image. I remember someone telling me that Yocto won’t let you run it as root so you may have to create a user before you can invoke bitbake.

The Evolving Landscape of Yocto Project Setup: bitbake-setup vs. KAS
The Yocto Project's new official tool, bitbake-setup, is now available, offering an alternative to the established KAS tool for project setup. This post compares the critical differences in features, configuration, and philosophy to clarify the current state and future of Yocto builds.

Bitbake/Yocto build issues will drive me mad!
Fix issue, build.... breaks at location that worked fine for months and completely unrelated to fix applied. My life this week.

So I'm reading Embedded Linux System with the Yocto Project, and in it and summarizes the history. And supposedly BitBake was inspired by Gentoo ebuild and emerge.
