20231021hotfix: replace x_ with err in some places

2023-10-22T11:34:45+00:00

keymaps weren't being set in keymay.cfg of cbfs, due
to use of x_ in the rom script, and x_ doesn't handle
quotes or spaces in arguments well.

i'm going to remove use of x_ and xx_ (it's in my todo),
for next release.

for now, hot patch the release. i've gone through and
replaced use of x_ with || err, in some places.

not just the keymap.cfg command, but others too. in case
there are more issues we missed.

this commit is being tagged "20231021fix" and i'm using
this tag to re-build the 20231021 release. i'll just
replace the tarballs in rsync and add errata to the news
page announcing the release. all i did was break peoples
umlauts, i didn't brick their machines fortunately!

very minor bug. anyway, x_/xx_ is a great idea, but sh
isn't really designed for that style of programming. i'll
go back to using just || err in the next release.

update/release: clean up temporary crossgcc dir

2023-10-20T20:55:57+00:00

clean it up after copying the tarballs

i really hate how this logic is written, it's clunky
but it should work; the only issue is that it's quite
slow, and inefficient on use of disk space.

however, i've not yet figured out how to reproducible
add files to a tarball, once the tarball has been created,
and i rely on sorting (of file names) when creating them.

it's really not a problem because normal people won't
use this script, only i or anyone who wants to test out
the libreboot release infrastructure. this script is
largely intended to *work*

but i'm still annoyed by how crappy it is. i'll fix it
after the Libreboot 20231021 release.

update/release: copy crossgcc to archive

2023-10-20T11:08:36+00:00

everything downloaded, then tarballed, then built,
now crossgcc is downloaded by coreboot.

now extract, copy crossgcc tarballs, re-compress.

TODO: simply add files to the archive, without re-
compressing the whole thing.

this is still more efficient than the old way: build
everything, then clean and compress, making another
build test on the release archive necessary; with this,
there is still only one build test per release.

with this, and the previous revisions dealing with
submodules, the source archives should now be complete.

always re-generate .git in lbmk

2023-10-20T10:16:25+00:00

in release archives, .git is excluded but the version
and versiondate files are included. from these, the
git history is re-created with the exact date (but not
taking into account timezone, at present).

in this way, lbmk will have git history in a release
archive. some build systems, like coreboot, prefer that
there be git history available, so this is a nice
workaround on those build systems.
