Hello all. GRUB maintainers team is proud to announce 2.04~rc1 that we
have just released.
We’re not aware of any of the release-critical bugs but we’re sure
that there are some so we need your help finding them.
The tarball is available at
http://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/grub-2.04~rc1.tar.xz
The -rc1 package builds and works fine in an LFS environment. Please
note that our environment is quite limited:
GRUB2 will be compiled with following components:
Platform: i386-pc
With devmapper support: No (need libdevmapper header)
With memory debugging: No
With disk cache statistics: No
With boot time statistics: No
efiemu runtime: No (explicitly disabled)
grub-mkfont: No (need freetype2 library)
grub-mount: No (need FUSE library)
starfield theme: No (No build-time grub-mkfont)
With libzfs support: No (need zfs library)
Build-time grub-mkfont: No (need freetype2 library)
Without unifont (no build-time grub-mkfont)
With liblzma from -llzma (support for XZ-compressed mips images)
I note two warnings using gcc8 if you want to address them:
grub-core/lib/libgcrypt-grub/cipher/rijndael.c: In function 'do_setkey':
grub-core/lib/libgcrypt-grub/cipher/rijndael.c:229:9: warning: suggest
braces around empty body in an 'if' statement [-Wempty-body]
;
^
grub-core/lib/libgcrypt-grub/cipher/rijndael.c:352:21: warning:
comparison of integer expressions of different signedness: 'int' and
'unsigned int' [-Wsign-compare]
for (i = 0; i < keylen; i++)
I have one question. When do you expect to release the stable grub-2.04
version of GRUB?
