anaconda in F34 and Rawhide recently stopped accepting params
without the inst. prefix, so 'rescue' does nothing except print
a warning now. We need to use `inst.rescue`. This has worked for
quite a long time so will be OK at least on all Fedoras and RHEL
8, not sure about RHEL 7.

The difference between the anaconda-install-{env,img}-deps packages is how
they treat dependencies. The -env package leaves some dependencies as weak to
allow less featureful builds. The -img package hard-requires everything
Anaconda could potentially use and ensures everything works.
For boot.iso, the latter is preferable. Its usage moves some things from the
templates to that package.
A post-installation script in fedora-live-base.ks actually modifies
Lorax (not idempotently) with the change in this commit while it is
running. This modification belongs directly in Lorax instead.
Note a subtle distinction in behavior that has been preserved here.
Lorax will copy the livecd-iso-to-disk script from the installroot
(if present). Running livecd-creator will copy it from the existing
root filesystem instead.
Since Fedora 30, license files are missing from the ISO filesystem
of live or installer images (including official builds). The source
path to these files changed when they were moved into a subpackage
named fedora-release-common (or generic-release-common).
Also, copy the license files from the installroot, rather than the
existing root filesystem.
Some of our images, like centos-8-stream, are already built from the
official cloud images instead of virt-install with LVM. More images are
going to do that soon [1][2], so fix vm.install to only do the LVM grow
steps if the image actually uses LVM.
Also adjust the comment, as commit 6ddaa5e0dd fixed this for
RHEL images.

This will cause livemedia-creator to terminate anaconda and exit when an
install hits an error that often causes anaconda to get stuck and not
exit.
Resolves: rhbz#1900596
When monitoring log output in livemedia-creator --no-virt it could get
stuck if the output from anaconda stops for some reason.
This changes execReadlines so that it will only read output when it is
available, will monitor the process state, and continue to call the
callback function.
It also adds a final timeout on proc.communicate() so that if Anaconda
becomes stuck and won't exit livemedia-creator will eventually exit.
When the no-virt callback terminates anaconda on an error it now sends a
TERM signal to all of the unshare process' children because just sending
it to unshare doesn't cause anaconda to exit.
There's no reason for it to run, it can't notify anyone. But disabling
the service, or masking it, doesn't work so remove the service files
from the rootfs.
Resolves: rhbz#1888730
mk-s390-cdboot has stopped working because the kernel outgrew the
hard-coded offset it used when creating cdboot.img. IBM now has a script
in s390utils that can do the same thing so use the upstream script
instead.
This drops mk-s390-cdboot script, switches the s390 templates to use
mk-s390image from s390utils.
It adds @ROOT@ to cdboot.prm, and sets inst.stage2 so that the installer
image will be found when booting the iso.

Some of the options have been removed, others are now the default.
MOTD still needs to be printed, the boot environment doesn't include the
pam motd module.

Because of the way that compress pipes things between processes it would
leave open file descriptors, and running processes around for a bit.
This waits for them to exit and closes the fds before returning.
Python will eventually close open files, but it is recommended to
explicitly close them instead of waiting for the gc or program exit.
This fixes all the uses of open...read/write in the codebase, mostly in
tests.
I removed the example blueprints, and this is now going to run against
osbuild-composer which doesn't have default blueprints installed. So
embed them into the test and push them as the first test.
Also note that osbuild-composer diff currently has a bug, you cannot
specify a commit hash, so mark the final diff test failure as expected
for now.
Previously this symlinked them to /dev/null, which didn't really
accomplish anything since they get recreated. So just remove them so
python can decide whether or not to recreate them.
When we stopped caring about ppc and ppc64, we changed several
instances of three-item tuples:
("ppc", "ppc64", "ppc64le")
into...this:
("ppc64le")
which is not a single item tuple, but just the string "ppc64le"
in some extraneous braces. It so happens that the right thing
still happened in all relevant cases , we think, but it's wrong.
There's no need to be using an iterator at all for a single
item, so just change them all to == "ppc64le" or != "ppc64le" as
appropriate.

AFAICS, the devices that need these firmwares - various boards
built by NXP, https://www.nxp.com - are all aarch64. So we don't
need to carry these firmware files in the installer env for other
arches.

Mellanox Spectrum devices are switches intended for data centers.
It is I guess feasible that someone might want to install Fedora
on one, but from the product pages and data sheets, I believe
they all have management interfaces that do not require this
firmware to work, and that's what you'd use if you needed a
network connection during OS deployment. The firmware is only
needed for the actual switched interfaces, and we don't need to
make those work during installation.

I based this on the output of a recent installer image build:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/branched/Fedora-33-20200904.n.0/logs/x86_64/buildinstall-Everything-logs/pylorax.log
I looked at every runtime-cleanup related error there and tried
to make appropriate changes. In many cases this means just
removing a line that isn't needed any more because the package
in question just went away or is no longer pulled into the
installer environment. In other cases packages changed name or
files moved around, and I tried to make appropriate updates. In
a few cases files moved to another package but I wasn't sure
enough it would still be safe to remove them so I just left them
in place. Most of the changes here I'm pretty sure should be
safe, though there *could* be unforeseen fallout from e.g. fixing
the removals from procps to be removals from procps-ng - it's
been years since that package was renamed, so something *could*
have started using those binaries in the meantime. I did at least
check that anaconda itself does not.

These are for devices that just aren't going to be needed during
install, like video encode/decode accelerators, TV capture cards,
webcams, and some sound firmwares that should probably be in
alsa-firmware but aren't. This is a fairly conservative cut, I
will split some possibly more controversial cuts into separate
commits for ease of detachment. The linux-firmware WHENCE file is
an invaluable resource in figuring this out.
