So install all required dependencies? It is really stupid argument to
say that _I have removed X from my PC_ and then _I cannot compile Y
because it depends on X_.

Why to quit? Why you cannot compile and install required dependency?

Also was not the whole purpose of using containers to make easier of
using different languages in different versions and also different
software?

Also what is the problem with 14 year old device and software? It is
_working_. Or are you saying that you do not want to support _working_
device just because it is _old_? What is the logic here?

We are using the latest version which contains working n900 emulator. It
is written also in the u-boot documentation.

Why? Emulator was already written and it is _working_. Why to invest new
time for writing a new emulator?

I think you completely missed the point here. U-Boot is being test in
this emulator to ensure that changes in u-boot does not break something.
In the past it already caught issues which were not uncovered by any
people review and neither by any other CI tests. Also for things which
are not n900-related.

Why not? U-Boot should work on any compatible hardware, so also on older
qemu version.

Released hardware is _not_ being changed, so any software testing should
use also older emulators, which are bound to the release date of
hardware to better match hardware testing.
