The 2025 version is also based on the upcoming Whinlatter version, and is also expected to be compatible with the next Wrynose LTS version. ...

This was possible in the past with the Ångström distribution, offering ready-made images which could be extended through binary package feeds. Though Ångström is long gone, the Yocto Project still has the ability to generate such images and package feeds. While system makers are still using this feature, the Yocto Project itself has never published such binaries. ...
