(commenting only on the technical note, not the scheduling / PULL,
because I see other (younger) emails in my INBOX about those:)
"INSTALL_BLOBS" is not a new environment variable or Makefile macro --
the context in the affected patch [1] may not show it, but INSTALL_BLOBS
is preexistent, and some of the hunks modify source code that already
falls under INSTALL_BLOBS's scope (e.g., the mention of the
"edk2-licenses.txt" file).
[1] "Makefile: install the edk2 firmware images and their descriptors"
In fact the commit message refers to "--disable-blobs":
Decompress and install the edk2 firmware blobs as part of "make
install", unless blob installation was disabled with configure's
"--disable-blobs" option.
That's what controls INSTALL_BLOBS. (I was intrigued myself, and had
tracked it down for the commit message.)
Thanks,
