dir_setup() doesn't exist, bootloader() exists but requires specific
tools to be installed in the seed stage and doesn't check that they are,
causing the build to fail.
---
If I have misconstrued the purpose of bootloader, then documentation
needs to be written.

There is some code that uses this option - set_install_mask() - but it was not
added to the list of valid specfile options.
The only mention of use is in the embedded target, but it may also be useful
for other stages.
---
install_mask allows the use of wildcard glob patterns, where */rm
doesn't.

When using remove() with a capture subpath (e.g. the embedded target), specifying
files in rm removes the files from the seed stage, not the captured stage.
Use destpath as a base for removals. When not using a subpath, destpath
equals chroot_path.
Also unhardcode log prefix to match the target.

When using a merge subpath (e.g. the embedded target's /tmp/mergeroot),
root_overlay() copies the overlay into the seed stage, rather than the subpath.
Copy the files into destpath. When not using a subpath, destpath equals
chroot_path (so other stages are not affected).
---
This is unpacked after the build. I don't see any possible reason why the
embedded target would need customisations after this point, and it
didn't match the behaviour of e.g. stage4/root_overlay.

Nice. This function was removed in 2005, so the embedded target has
been broken ever since. That certainly answers my question as to
whether anyone uses it.
Fixes: 1dafb5fa06d2 (Add locking support. ...)
So, you must use the embedded target. Could you tell me how you use
it, for what device, etc?

It's not obvious to me what specific tools this requires to be
installed in the seed stage. Presumably you're referring to this?
cmd([self.settings['controller_file'], 'bootloader',
self.settings['target_path'].rstrip('/')]
which eventually runs bootloader-setup.sh.
I'd assume it's generally sensible to install a bootloader in the
embedded target, and I don't think we have mechanism for customizing
the action_sequence, so if we remove bootloader from the list then I
think the python bootloader() function is just dead code, isn't it? I
doubt that's the end result we want.

Nice. I'll add a bit of documentation to the man page when I commit this.

I'm confused. The previous commit didn't break anything that this
patch fixes, as far as I can tell. This patch just enables
root_overlay for the embedded target, right?
If so, I think the commit is right, but that we should remove the
incorrect sentence from the commit message.

No, if you notice, this is removing the bootloader action sequence only
for the embedded target. Each target subclasses stagebase, so can
override what is defined in stagebase as needed. Customizing the
action_sequence is something that pretty much all the targets do.

Sorry I misspoke. Yes, bootloader() is called for livecd_stage2 and
stage4 as well, so removing it from embedded's action sequence would
not make the function dead.
I have doubts that we actually want to not run bootloader() for the
embedded target though.

Whoops, I misspoke. It was broken 'until' the previous commit.

I produce mini-systemd tarballs to run under systemd-nspawn (or other
container systems). Sometimes, those tarballs can be used as
installation tarballs on bare metal systems, but in those cases
I need to bring my own kernel and bootloader.
systemd does require dynamic library dependencies so I modified (patches
probably will not sent upstream for inclusion) the embedded target to
pull in dependencies. The embedded target usually leaves dependency
resolution to the user (with embedded/packages).

So the "controller.sh bootloader" is executed, but it kills the build in
the create_bootloader() function:
22 May 2020 03:58:27 UTC: NOTICE : --- Running action sequence: bootloader

I don't have grub in the seed stage (it _is_ optional), and don't make livecd images (I
don't know why it's trying to touch the builds/ path; maybe it wants tmp/...)

Personally, I just need the tarball of the mergeroot, so I don't need the
bootloader action. In lieu of this particular change, maybe some if
statements to see if bootloader-setup.sh can run successfully may be
needed.
