 Hi,

I just tried to compile QEMU on a freshly installed system. "configure" finished without problems, but during "make" I hit this error:

  BUNZIP2 pc-bios/edk2-i386-secure-code.fd.bz2
/bin/sh: bzip2: command not found
make: *** [Makefile:305: pc-bios/edk2-i386-secure-code.fd] Error 127
make: *** Deleting file 'pc-bios/edk2-i386-secure-code.fd'
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

This error happened with me a few times as well. And I always wondered why bzip2 isn't checked on configure.



Sure, it's easy to fix, but maybe "configure" should already check for the availablity of "bzip2", so that we then either skip the installation of the edk2 images if "bzip2" is not available, or bail out during "configure" already?

IMHO, it should be checked since bzip2 is a build dependency.

Thanks,

Wainer
