Description
Fedora Fails To Install
2024-11-28 12:12:18 UTC
Kraxel dropped the 32 bit arm images: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/edk2/c/53fa21dafcef14a7d264a89c2977cdbef58df770?branch=rawhide I'm not sure if we should just drop this dependency from the qemu package, or if it's actually needed (-kernel and/or devicetree boot would still work without it?) Cole added the EDK dep back in:

Add edk-arm dep for system-arm
It's expected nowdays for -M virt
It is certainly relevant to aarch64, and it happens that QEMU broadly mirrors functionality across arm7 & arch64, hence 'virt' on arm7
What I'm unclear on is whether there were ever any OS that supported '-M virt' with arm7, that expected EDK ?
*** Bug 2329905 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Updates edk2 for f40 + f41 are pending (in updates-testing right now), so I guess the comment 4 fix should go to f41 and f40 too? Also a heads up: edk2-ovmf-ia32 is a drop candidate too. The number of distros actually supporting i386 installs is shrinking, and i386 EFI guest support is an extremly rare thing too. Essentially because the large style adoption of x86_64 happened before the large style adoption of UEFI. Maybe I should do that right away, while being busy dropping 32-bit EFI platforms, for consistency reasons. "dnf repoquery --whatdepends=edk2-ovmf-ia32" comes up empty, so that should at least not cause any dependency problems. qemu doesn't require edk2-ovmf-ia32 so there'll be nothing to do there. Note this too: https://www.spinics.net/lists/fedora-devel/threads.html#324668 I also fixed this in F41 & F40.
