Same with qemu-kvm.
This is with crossgcc. I'm disappointed it's this fragile. I'm worried that feature push has gotten ahead of reliability push.
Or your qemu installation is b0rk3d.
Perhaps if it is that easy to break the installation -- remember, he did a clean checkout -- then there could be a broken dependency, or something similar which involves digging deeply into the build system.
In other words, even if what you say is true, we still need to have this conversation.
I feel like Coreboot is a bit fiddly to get set up right. To a degree, that helps communicate that working with coreboot is hard stuff. But still, we should implement some better quality controls, imho.
Hopefully we can figure out what Ron ran into. That would be a good start.
