I made a qemu-v3 branch, merging qemu-v2 on top of current master, and making some additional changes so that building arch:all on other architectures does not fail to build if they're missing the appropriate cross-compilers... by allowing it to skip such targets. I'll need to document in debian/README.source that it should only be built on amd64 or i386, where all the targets can be built. It's not pretty, but it at least allows the reproducible builds arm* builders to continue to test u-boot, while at least building the targets it can on those architectures. If the additional needed cross-compilers are enabled, they just need to be added in Build-Depends-Indep and it will "just work". It does appear to be a bit late to get this into buster, but I intend to push it to expperimental with the next u-boot release/release candidate. live well, vagrant
