[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1714750] Re: 2.10.0 cannot be installed on case-insensitive file system

[Peter Maydell]

Yes, but that's not how we ship them today. (We're actually considering
having the ROM blob sources be in an entirely separate tarball from the
QEMU sources, for unrelated reasons).

We should fix this bug by:
 (1) getting u-boot to fix it upstream
 (2) moving to a fixed u-boot

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.
