I am tying to build a reference image with yocto, following the instructions here:
I am trying to build the quarterly stable release BSP version 7.0.0
Therefore i checkout tag 7.0.0 as follows $ repo init -u git://git.toradex.com/toradex-manifest.git -b refs/tags/7.0.0 -m tdxref/default.xml $ repo sync
When I bitbake the project, it shows the following build configuration: Build Configuration: BB_VERSION = "2.8.0" BUILD_SYS = "x86_64-linux" NATIVELSBSTRING = "universal" TARGET_SYS = "arm-tdx-linux-gnueabi" MACHINE = "colibri-imx6ull" DISTRO = "tdx-xwayland-upstream" DISTRO_VERSION = "7.0.0-devel-20241118075232+build.0" TUNE_FEATURES = "arm armv7a vfp thumb neon callconvention-hard" TARGET_FPU = "hard" ...
I would expect DISTRO_VERSION to indicate a stable release and not “7.0.0-devel-YYYY…”
Therefore I ask for instructions on how to get a non “devel” distro version. E.g. how to get the stable quarterly release. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello!
To ensure your Yocto build reflects a stable release rather than a development version, you can follow these steps:
Verify the Tag and Branch: Double-check that the tag ‘7.0.0’ is indeed a stable release tag in the Toradex repository. You can do this by listing all tags in the repository and confirming that ‘7.0.0’ is marked as stable.
Check the Manifest File: Open the tdxref/default.xml file and ensure it points to the correct branches and repositories for a stable release. Sometimes, the manifest might still reference development branches, which could cause the build to show a development version.
Reinitialize the Repo: If you find discrepancies, you might need to reinitialize the repo with the correct branch or tag. Use the following commands:
Review Build Configuration: After syncing, check the build configuration again to see if the DISTRO_VERSION reflects the stable release. If it still shows a development version, there might be additional configurations needed.
By following these steps, you should be able to configure your build environment to reflect a stable release version. If you continue to encounter issues, it may be necessary to further investigate the repository setup.
I hope this helps you achieve the desired stable release build!
