In Debian dependencies files. These are available in
Debian Stable, but liblz4-tool is a transitional
package referring to lz4; liblz4-tool transition
package is unavailable in Debian sid, so remove it
from the dependencies files.

./mk dependencies debian --reinstall
Add --reinstall and it'll do:
apt-get install --reinstall
This can be useful when updating from a stable release
to a testing release. The variable, "reinstall" can be
configured for other distros, but it's currently only
configured for Debian-based distros.
Also, it can be anything. For example, you could add -y;
however, a 4th argument will not be accepted. For example,
you cannot do:
./mk dependencies debian --reinstall -y
If you do this, it'll only see --reinstall; similarly, if
you did this command:
./mk dependencies debian -y --reinstall
then -y would be passed, but not --reinstall. This is an
intentional design decision, in case you accidentally pasted
or subshelled something that outputted something undesirable,
to prevent possible abuse.

because if it says yes to everything, and the package
manager would otherwise ask whether you want to give
it your first born son, you are therefore agreeing to it.
so remove -y for safety

We don't need the entire emulator, but we will be using
a specific part: src/mips/openbios
third_party/uC-sdk submodule is included, because it
contains the necessary header files when building open bios.
I will be adding Sony Playstation support to Canoeboot,
alongside a new emulator project to be announced soon.
Yes, RYF playstation is possible. A real playstation can
run this BIOS. Then disable the copy protection from the
CD controller by installing a modchip (PsNee runs free
modchip firmware), and picostation is also libre if you want
something to boot software from SD card instead of CD-R.
Very hackable 90s games console. Libre SDKs also exist that
are quite powerful, so you can actually use this machine while
avoiding all proprietary software of any kind.
