See:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/sys.html#sys.version_info
The sys.version_info tuple is a more reliable way to
get the version. Our previous logic assumed that Python
would always output "Python versionnumber", but this may
not always be how it works. We've seen this for example
where Debian modifies some GNU toolchains to include Debian
something in the output.
Python has a standard method built in for outputting exact
the information we need. In my system, what I got was this:
(3, 11, 2, 'final', 0)
That output was from running this command:
python -c 'import sys; print(sys.version_info[:])'
This is much more robust, so use this instead.

we already check the python version, and set a variable
for it, so that we can reliably use python3, even if
python in PATH doesn't correspond to python3. for
example if a system has python as python2 and python3
as python3
well, we use that when running deguard for example, but
various upstream projects that we use may need python,
and all of them use python3, not 2
so, re-use the python variable set up by lbmk, and
set it up in PATH accordingly. this now makes the note
about python3 obsolete, on docs/build.md in lbwww.git

the bug was actually caused by chkvars
add an escape for the quotes and bam. fixed.
without this, i got the following e.g.
For command: ./mk dependencies debian
Output:
./mk: 1: [: apt-get: unexpected operator
ERROR ./mk: pkg_add unset
Someone reported a similar issue with the Arch one,
which is also now fixed. This regression was caused

i also removed that printf, because the path it prints is

There was also a condition in run_make_command that is now
an OR, where it was an AND, on script/trees, to fix the use
of mixed (and erroneous) OR/AND operators.
I'm planning a much more invasive audit than this. These are
light fixes, intended for Libreboot 20241206 rev8.

./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.

When doing ./mk release, the build system would create
symlinks inside xbmkpath/ relative to the current work tree,
which will differ from what's in PATH.
Since XBMK_CACHE is already set globally, from the main work
tree and the release-build work tree, that means we can know
reliably that PATH is always correct if we put xbmkpath/
inside XBMK_CACHE.

Remove all symlinks each time, to ensure that no
stragglers are left behind, since they are being
re-generated each time anyway.

When I tested Debian Trixie, and Debian Sid, I saw that
GCC in PATH pointed to gcc-14, but gnat in path pointed
to GNAT-13, even if you manually install gnat-14.
GNAT 14 was marked experimental, but GCC 14 was marked
for use, in the apt repositories.
So this patch doesn't address the mismatch when doing e.g.
apt-get install gcc gnat
I will address the actual package dependency in a follow-up
patch, on the Debian dependencies config.

The exit was dependent upon install_packages returning
zero status, which it always would in practise, due to
its design, but this exit must always be observed, so
the code has been modified to honour this design.
A direct exit violates lbmk's design in most instances,
where a temporary directory and lock file has already
been created; at this stage, no such act was performed,
so a direct exit is perfectly acceptable.

Currently seems to stall when booted from the GRUB
payload, but works when booted from the SeaBIOS menu.

NOTE: Support added for xarch target x86_64-elf,
but U-Boot failed to build with this error:
OBJCOPY lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi
x86_64-elf-objcopy: lib/efi_loader/helloworld_efi.so: invalid bfd target
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.lib:476: lib/efi_loader/helloworld.efi] Error 1
Since I'm building U-Boot for x86_64 *on* an x86-64
host, and since that is currently the recommended type
of machine to use for cbmk development, and since the
other x86 payloads currently don't cross compile anyway,
this is an acceptable compromise for now. This is because
at present, I'm not making U-Boot the primary payload on x86,
instead preferring to chain it from GRUB and SeaBIOS.
The target.cfg file for x86 u-boot shows xarch/xtree commented.
Uncomment these to compile on crossgcc instead of hostcc.
I mention 64-bit because I initially did this first, but decided
to do 32-bit first. I'll work on the 64-bit one next (SPL).
It's only enabled in QEMU for now.

single-tree projects cannot be handled in bulk, e.g.
./mk -f project1 project2 project3
that is still the case, from the shell, but internally
it is now possible:
mk -f project1 project2 project3
mk() is a function that simply handles the given flag,
and all projects specified.
it does not handle cases without argument, for example
you cannot do:
mk -f
arguments must be provided. it can be used internally,
to simplify cases where multiple single-tree projects
must be handled, but *also* allows multi-tree projects
to be specified, without being able to actually handle
trees within that multi-tree project; so for example,
you can only specify coreboot, and then it would run
on every coreboot tree.

XBMK_CACHE is now used, instead of hardcoding cache/
this is exported initialised to cache/, if unset.
this means you can set your own directory, and it means
./update release will use the same directory.
this means bandwidth wastage is further avoided.

lib.sh download() is used by subfile handling in git.sh,
e.g. crossgcc tarballs.
they are not currently cached, but are downloaded directly
in place.
cache them, under cache/file/, saved with the name equal
to the checksum, so: cache/file/CHECKSUM
if the given cached file exists, use it as-is for simple
copy, instead of curl. this avoids re-downloading a lot of
crossgcc tarballs, where different coreboot trees may use
some archives that are the same throughout.

stub it from the trees script. the way it works now,
there is less code in the build system.
./build roms
this is no longer a thing
./build roms serprog
this is also no longer a thing. instead, do:
./update trees -b coreboot targetnamehere
./update trees -b pico-serprog
./update trees -b stm32-vserprog
the old commands still works, which causes the new
commands to run
coreboot roms now appear in elf/, not bin/, as before,
but those images now contain payloads.
NOTE: to contradict the above: ./build roms is no
longer a thing, in that it's now deprecated, but
backward compatibility is present for now. it will
be removed in a future release.
./build roms list also still works! it will do:
./update trees -b coreboot list
also:
./update trees -b grub list
this is now possible too
if a target "list" is provided, for multi-tree sources,
the targets are shown.
there is another difference: seagrub roms are now seagrub_,
instead of seabios_withgrub.
seabios-only roms are no longer provided, where grub is also
enabled; only seagrub is used. the user can easily remove
the bootorder file, if they want seabios to not try grub first.

we don't want the user to flash coreboot from elf/, because
those images do not contain payloads. the user must flash from
bin/
ample warning is given, at build time, but the warning is written
in english. therefore, some people may not understand it, because
they may not even speak english.
hide the coreboot elf/ directory, to mitigate this possibility.
in most cases, this will probably prevent the average user from
flashing those images, since they likely won't see it.
the "DO NOT FLASH" warning is still included in that directory
name, while creating it.
