- Add docker_cleanup_old_images() to remove dangling images and keep only 2 most recent per tag
- Add docker_pull_with_marker() to pull images and update marker files tracking last pull time
- Add docker_setup_auto_pull_cronjob() to create/update system cronjob and wrapper script via hash-based detection
- Add docker_ensure_auto_pull_cronjob() to ensure cronjob is installed and up-to-date
- Create self-contained wrapper script at /usr/local/bin/armbian-docker-pull for cron execution
- Store configuration hash in /var/lib/armbian/docker-pull.hash for smart update detection
- Install cronjob at /etc/cron.d/armbian-docker-pull to pull images every 12 hours
- Move cronjob setup from docker_cli_prepare() to requirements command
- Cronjob is now only installed when users explicitly run ./compile.sh requirements
- Prevents "12 hours since last pull, pulling again" delay during builds

Build process generated numerous locale warnings like:
bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)
perl: warning: Setting locale failed
This happened because the Docker container and host environment were
configured to use `en_US.UTF-8`, but the rootfs cache may not contain
this locale (only `C.utf8` and whatever `DEST_LANG` specifies,
e.g. `en_GB.utf8`).
When `chroot_sdcard` runs commands inside the rootfs, environment variables
are inherited from the host/Docker, causing locale lookup failures.
Then use `C.UTF-8` locale for the build environment instead of `en_US.UTF-8`.
This locale is always available in rootfs immediately after mmdebstrap,
requiring no generation.
Changes
`lib/functions/host/docker.sh`: Remove `en_US.UTF-8` locale generation,
set `LANG=C.UTF-8` in container environment
`lib/functions/host/prepare-host.sh`: Change locale exports
from `en_US.UTF-8` to `C.UTF-8`
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)
Use $DOCKER_INFO to check for podman vs dockerd, and conditionally
`exec` and `dev` volume options, which are needed on podman but not
allowed on dockerd.
It hasn't been an issue for Docker because their defaults didn't
conflict, but Podman mounts volumes with nodev (and formerly noexec) by
default, which would break the build. Adding `dev` and `exec` to the
volume mount options ensures the needed setting whatever the defaults.
* always use http for apt repos
* pass possible proxy arguments to docker
* populate lower-case env variables with upper-case ones if not set otherwise
- 7s+ -> 3s
- by using `enable_extensions_with_hostdeps_builtin_and_user "add_host_dependencies" "host_dependencies_known"` instead of `enable_all_extensions_builtin_and_user`
This fixes the readability of colorized output of compile.sh when
running on a terminal with a light background. It uses the COLORFGBG
environment variable similarly to how the ip(8) command does.

- host_release (wanted_release_tag) was being re-computed from DOCKER_ARMBIAN_BASE_IMAGE
- DOCKER_ARMBIAN_BASE_IMAGE might have been changed from "<os>:<release>" if DOCKERFILE_USE_ARMBIAN_IMAGE_AS_BASE != no
- that would cause host_release to be "armbian-ubuntu-lunar-latest", not "lunar"
- which would cause python2/python2-dev to be installed, which would cause Dockerfile build to fail
- even Rich'er patch output by colorizing certain strings green/yellow/red
- BASE_GIT_TAG now very sneakily also accepts a branch name
- IMPORTANT: this includes: BREAKING CHANGE: patches failing to apply now break the build. fixes#4958
- also break on legacy `process_patch_file()` failure, remove `EXIT_PATCHING_ERROR`
- otherwise we get 4 errors for each "error" in CI
- one for the real error
- one for "wait for cleanups"
- one for "Docker build failed"
- one from GHA itself since command failed (we can't get rid of this)
- allow adding re-launch environments by populating `ARMBIAN_CLI_RELAUNCH_PARAMS` dict
- similar to `ARMBIAN_CLI_RELAUNCH_PARAMS`
- rename/consolidate `()`'s output globals:
- `ARMBIAN_CLI_FINAL_RELAUNCH_ARGS` (rename)
- `ARMBIAN_CLI_FINAL_RELAUNCH_ENVS` (new)
- includes `ARMBIAN_HIDE_REPEAT_PARAMS` automatically
- `sudo`: include envs when relaunching, use bash explicitly
- `docker`: better logging
- `docker`: include envs when relaunching via `--env` args
* Add / modify (c) in bash scripts
