[Buildroot] [PATCH 0/2] Fixes for binman after python-setuptools update

[Vincent Stehlé]

Hi,

Here is a couple of patches after the python-setuptools update.
The defconfig has been tested to boot from eMMC on an IOT-GATE-iMX8 board.

Best regards,
Vincent.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] support/testing: bump test_atf u-boot to fix the build

[Vincent Stehlé]

Python setuptools has removed the obsolete pkg_resources python module in
v82.0.0. This module is used by the binman command in U-Boot until
v2025.10.
Since the python-setuptools package has been updated to v82.0.0 in
Buildroot, the python test tests.boot.test_atf.TestATFAllwinner (using
U-Boot v2023.10 and binman) fails to build with the following error [1]:

  ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

Update test_atf to use a more recent U-Boot v2026.01 (and add the
dependency on GNU TLS), to fix the build.

Series applied to master, thanks.
For info, I update the compulab custom uboot.hash file. See:
https://gitlab.com/buildroot.org/buildroot/-/commit/fe49bf9451b512b3c2d6c441b16ec0a87ea54959

Best regards,
