- Update to edk2-stable202005
I might be totally ignorant but: why does The King James Bible (brotli-v1.0.7-17-g666c328/java/org/brotli/integration/test_corpus/bible.txt) have to be distributed as part of ovmf? Is this simply about 'praying that this firmware works'? (legal bot catches this as the license is not covered yet)
Sigh, it's a part of the brotli (compression format) test case, and I didn't notice that. Edk2 upstream used to copy the code from brotli git but now they switched to submodule so I have to archive it to a tarball. Would it work if I remove all non-necessary files in %setup?
Or patch the build system to use the system brotli instead?
Probably not working. Edk2/ovmf needs those code built statically since it's a firmware, not a system program.
I'm working on the reduced tarball to include the source code (the "c" directory) needed by edk2.
