Somebody re-reported this which reminded me that we forgot to tidy up the loose ends here. Current status: * this is fixed in upstream u-boot with their commit 610eec7f0593574 (committed October 2017, and in u-boot release v2017.11 and later) * in QEMU's release process we put in a workaround in our commit d0dead3b6df7f6cd97 which puts the u-boot sources in their own tarball rather than extracted; this went into QEMU release 2.11.0 * we are still shipping the same old version of u-boot we were in 2.10
So ideally we'd finish fixing this bug report by: * updating our u-boot to some version v2017.11 or later * removing the d0dead3b6df7f6cd97 workaround -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1714750 Title: 2.10.0 cannot be installed on case-insensitive file system Status in QEMU: New Bug description: The https://download.qemu.org/qemu-2.10.0.tar.bz2 tarball cannot be unpacked on a case-insensitive file system because it has a file qemu-2.10.0/roms/u-boot/scripts/Kconfig and a directory qemu-2.10.0/roms/u-boot/scripts/kconfig. This prevents installation on most macOS systems since by default the file system is case insensitive. The 2.10.0 upgrade is blocked in Homebrew due to this issue. See https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/17467. This is a regression from 2.9.0, which didn't have this problem.
