armbian-config uses debconf-apt-progress which is part of debconf.
libtext-iconv-perl is needed to prevent the following error, when
uninstalling a package through debconf-apt-progress:
Can't locate object method "new" via package "Text::Iconv" (perhaps you forgot to load "Text::Iconv"?) at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/Encoding.pm line 65, <GEN2> line 2.
dpkg: error processing package nfs-common (--configure):
- we've some smelly stuff in write_uboot_platform for some families that we'd rather catch early
- implement small syntax fixes in setup_write_uboot_platform
* Add a list of BASH shell aliases and merge them with ohmyZSH aliases
* Add command armbian-upgrade to the BSP which executes update + upgrade
* Display armbian-upgrade only if there are upgrades
* Generate empty folder where will store data. This doesn't exists at early start
* Move armbian-install to /usr/bin and autoexecute sudo
The kernel option `CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS_NONE` was superseded by `CONFIG_MODULE_COMPRESS` in 6.12.
Adapt the kernel compilation script accordingly to force the correct kernel option.

This temporary workaround was only needed for tinkerboard and xt-q8l-v10 version 2022.04 U-Boot. The version has since bumped to 2024.07 and builds fine without this.
- this avoids trouble building certain older versions with binman
- as it tries to `os.path.join(os.getenv('HOME'), 'bin')` and gets a `None` and dies
- naming names: `tinkerboard` & `xt-q8l-v10` (BOARDFAMILY=rockchip), which _actually use_ binman & 22.04 combo
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.
- in preparation for tightening the shellcheck severity level
- it needs to be able to follow all sources; dynamic ones are ignored, static ones need root-relative prefix
- we had `_DEBUG=n` forced, which conflicted with `_EXPERT=y`;
- some important SBC features (like _GPIO_SYSFS) depend on _EXPERT=y
- we've plans to enable BTF/CO-RE kernels soon, so removing the non-debug enforcement makes some sense
- also, .config's will be free to determine debug config, nothing's changing in those here
- remove the `_EMBEDDED` special case handling, we can do that as well now
- add a separate hook to renable `CONFIG_GPIO_SYSFS=y`; it was a victim of `EXPERT=n` in some kernels
- this does not include rewrites of all the .configs -- those should be done in a separate batch -- either way effect is the same, hooks will always override .config's
- during rewrites, a large number of new options will show up, since `_EXPERT=y` is used as dependency for many of Kernel's experimental-ish features
