Limine 3.7.3 compiled in OE

June 26, 2022 — BarryK

I reported about compiling v3.7, which is used in Easy 4.2:

Received some feedback, testing Easy 4.2, Limine boot failing, I reported:

https://github.com/limine-bootloader/limine/issues/184

https://github.com/limine-bootloader/limine/issues/185

#184 is fixed in v3.7.1, #185 fixed in v3.8.2. However, I am unable to compile v3.8 or later:

As a quick fix, just to have an updated Limine to test, I backported the fix in #185 to v3.7.3, and have compiled v3.7.3 in OE.

Limine v3.7.3 with patch will be used to build Easy 4.2.1.
