Both python-mode and python-ts-mode are shipped by Emacs nowadays, with the
latter being the more modern tree-sitter-based one. Even though they are
similar, the newer one doesn't automatically take the older ones settings.
When a tries file exists, 90-uki-copy.install removes a previous UKI of the
same kernel version and all it's unbooted variants. This removal is guarded
behind a check for the existence of the already booted UKI, i.e. if uki.efi
already exists, uki.efi and uki+*.efi will be removed.
This leaves the edge case that if uki.efi does not exist, but only an unbooted,
e.g. uki+3.efi, it will not be removed. This is not a problem, if the number of
tries is constant between both builds, since a new uki+3.efi would overwrite
the existing one, but if the number of tries is changed to, e.g. uki+5.efi, we
are left with both uki+3.efi and uki+5.efi.
The same is done for loader entries.
This changes the instances of lexical to lexicographic, thus making it easier
to grep for instances of lexicographic order, since there's only one variant of
the word to consider.
Lexicographic is chosen since there are slightly fewer instances of lexical and
lexicographic seems a better fit than lexical after checking a few
dictionaries.
The words lexical, lexicographic, and lexicographical are synonyms in
computing, meaning an alphabetical order. Both the Oxford dictionary and
Merriam-Webster make no distinction between lexicographic and lexicographical,
with only Wiktionary adding a more precise meaning of
Meeting lexicographical standards or requirements; worthy of being included
in a dictionary. [1]
Since, outside of computing, lexicographic(al) has the more specific meaning
pertaining to lexicography, i.e. the editing or making of dictionaries [2], and
lexical only has this as a secondary meaning after its linguistic meaning [3],
lexicographic fits the meaning of including and ordering entries better.

can be seen in CI output. So let's apply the suggestion.
mkosi switch to the newer -blockdev qemu option in systemd/mkosi#3557 [1], but
cache=unsafe is an option only -drive supports.
Since the qemu-system_x86-64 man page [2] says this, cache.writeback=on is the
default and mkosi setting the other two options to the values corresponding to
unsafe, it should be fine to drop the cache=unsafe option.

This achieves parity with the mypy config used in mkosi.
The import of builtins is needed because otherwise type is attempted to be
resolved to the variable in the scope.
When boot counting is enabled, adding a new loader entry or UKI can conflict
with an existing one that has booted successfully and therefore has its boot
counter removed. systemd-bless-boot will fail to bless the new successful boot,
since a file without a boot counter already exists. Since kernel-install will
clobber existing files without boot counting, we should therefore remove files
without a boot count as well, when we add a file with one.
Fixes: #33504
- mention the version format spec for sytsemd-vpick
- say what "systemd-creds --user" can be used by unprivileged users as well
- say what importctl does
- use en dash instead of em dash
- add a missing article
This commits adds version_is_valid_versionspec and uses it in
analyze-compare-version.c.
version_is_valid_versionspec differs from version_is_valid in that it acepts
empty strings and since valid characters in a version spec version are all
ASCII letters and digits as well as "-.~^", but ",_+" allowed by
version_is_valid are not.
Also give a more specific warning message on invalid characters.
The article "a" goes before consonant sounds and "an" goes before vowel
sounds. This commit changes an to a for UKI, UDP, UTF-8, URL, UUID, U-Label, UI
and USB, since they start with the sound /ˌjuː/.
Currently the kernel-install man page only documents the bls layout for use
with the boot loader spec type #1. 90-loaderentry.install uses this layout to
generate loader entries and copy the kernel image and initrd to $BOOT.
This commit documents a second layout "uki" and adds 90-uki-copy.install,
which copies a UKI "uki.efi" from the staging area or any file with the .efi
extension given on the command line to
$BOOT/EFI/Linux/$ENTRY_TOKEN-$KERNEl_VERSION(+$TRIES).efi
This allows for both locally generated and distro-provided UKIs to be handled
by kernel-install.
If WorkingDirectory is on NFS, root might only have the privileges of
nobody and the chdir to the WorkingDirectory might fail, even if the
user running the service would have the proper privileges to chdir to
that directory.
