Ubuntu 25.04+ replaced GNU coreutils with uutils coreutils, a Rust-based
reimplementation of Unix core utilities. These are different projects
with the same package name:
- GNU coreutils 9.x (C) - Ubuntu ≤24.04
- uutils coreutils 0.x (Rust) - Ubuntu ≥25.04
The uutils comm doesn't recognize sort output as sorted, causing
"comm: file is not in sorted order" errors.
Replace comm patterns with:
- grep -vxFf for set difference (lines in B but not in A)
- sort | uniq -d for finding duplicates
These alternatives don't depend on comm, ensuring compatibility
with both GNU and uutils coreutils.
Update all copyright notices in shell scripts from 2025 to 2026.
## Changes
- **Igor Pecovnik**: 2013-2025 → 2013-2026 (129 files)
- **Ricardo Pardini**: 2023-2025 → 2023-2026, 2020-2025 → 2020-2026 (5 files)
## Additional Improvements
Also updated the backtitle in `lib/functions/configuration/interactive.sh`:
- Changed title from "Armbian building script" to "Armbian Linux build framework"
- Removed docs link for cleaner display
- Uses dynamic year calculation with separate declaration (fixes shellcheck SC2155)
Problem: armbian-base-files artifact for jammy fails to build because
apt_find_upstream_package_version_and_download_url() looks for 'jammy-updates'
in https://github.armbian.com/base-files.json, but only 'jammy' key exists.
Root cause:
- For Ubuntu LTS (focal, jammy), code sets package_download_release to '${RELEASE}-updates'
- JSON file from github.armbian.com only has base release keys (jammy, noble, etc)
- jq query returns null for 'jammy-updates'
- Artifact excluded from build matrix after 10 retries
Solution: Add fallback logic
- First try with '-updates' suffix (jammy-updates)
- If not found and release ends with '-updates', retry with base release (jammy)
- This allows using base release data when -updates is not available
Impact:
- Fixes jammy base-files artifact build
- Allows jammy images to build (they depend on this artifact)
- Maintains preference for -updates when available
- No impact on other releases (Debian, non-LTS Ubuntu)
In the building when there is not any extensions with given pattern exist, 'enable_extensions_with_hostdeps_builtin_and_user()' will throw errors such as: 'Error 123 occurred in SUBSHELL SUBSHELL at /<some-path>/lib/functions/general/extensions.sh:582'. The changes will eliminate the error message and add prints to show the current searched folder and extensions count found in the folder.

- python3-pip implies a very old setuptools (which is system-wide and takes precedence)
- python3-dev implies python3-distutils (which is long deprecated)
- get-pip.py allows us to version pip in requirements.txt just like everything else
- in the end this fixes the conundrum with pylibfdt / dtschema on Jammy
- and, finally, the setuptools we specify in requirements.txt will be actually used
Validates the dts/dtb file for the selected board and outputs the validation logs to the user.
This can be used when adding a new board, developing or improving a dts file. Should lead to higher quality device trees and patches overall, if used.
Will show warnings/errors if patches patch in some functionalities to a devicetree file without patching in the dt-bindings .yaml at the same time.
- Rename extensions with "net-*" prefix
- Put the extensions into their own folder
- Split off time sync packages into their own extensions to be able to be used separately
- Put their config files into directories instead of using inline `cat <<- EOF >`
- Move some other NetworkManager related stuff into the extension
- Remove unneeded steps
- Install iproute2 by default on all images (for the `ip` command)
