while researching the different "sed" options on our supported build

"make vm-build-haiku.x86_64" in my QEMU build directory for the first

And I had to discover that this is completely out of date. The image
does not contain any version
of Python 3 yet which we require for compilation since more than a
year now already, and the Haiku
version in there seems to be too old to do a "pkgman install -y
python3" ... so this has been
completely been bitrotting since more than a year now. Is anybody
still interested in keeping the
Haiku support in QEMU? If so, please help to get the VM image
updated. Thanks!
I submitted
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/qemu-devel/patch/20220216154208.2985103-1-kallis...@unixzen.com/
to fix this issue. The build runs as expected after that patchset.
Likely cause is us no longer packing a "python" binary, deferring to
"python2" vs "python3"
I'm still the most likely maintainer. Are there still plans to
automate the tests for Haiku to
prevent this from happening again in the future?
AFAIK we still don't have a machine where we could properly run VM-based
tests in the CI, do we? Peter? Cleber?
We still have unused fosshost.org resources. What we don't have is a
sysadmin willing to install the VM and maintain it over time.
