This page is supposed to describe the Libreboot build system, but it
seems to only be there as a placeholder waiting for contributions that
add the actual information.
The problem here is that we don't want to describe the build system in
details in the manual for now as it is being reworked and it is
subject to change.
So for now we prefer to cleanup the code instead, and commenting it
along the way if possible, and if some explanations need to be added
in the manual it will most likely cover the global architecture which
isn't defined yet.

Since we now have a very visible banner that indicates which pages
have been not been reviewed, and contribution instructions on how to
fix that, we are ready to publish the website.
Right now the deploy path of the website isn't configurable as this
would require some form of templating or processing of the markdown
files, so the website was simply moved from
gnu.org/software/gnuboot/test to gnu.org/software/gnuboot.

The website will be published to https://gnu.org/software/gnuboot. But
for now it is not ready yet to be published as-is because there are no
contribution instructions yet and we also need to agree on what to put
on the main page.
So until that's fixed, it will be published to
https://gnu.org/software/gnuboot/test.

Neox: Suggested the split from the "website-build: build.sh: switch to
GNU Boot repositories." commit.

Since the website and the images were merged in GNU boot respectively
in site/ and www/, we can now modify GNU boot to only be cloned once
to build the website.
This also requires to move the images inside site/ at the place where
website-build expects them.

We don't plan to use an external website just for the images, so
we need a local path for the images.
Since the images are in www/ in the images repositories, it's easier
to expect the images in img/www to enable easy deployment by users.
The path of the images aren't relative to the page. So we need to use
a kind of absolute path for it to work.
We have the choice of not using any domain (/img/www/) or using a
specific domain (DOMAIN/img/www/). We use the former as the later
doesn't work offline and cannot use the local images.
However the downside is that we need a local web server for it to work
as simply opening the html files in a browser won't work unless the
user puts the images inside /img/www inside the root filesystem.

Before the images were hosted on a separate domain. Since we don't
have that, we moved them in libreboot/img and the address were changed
with the following command:
$ sed 's#av\.libreboot\.srht\.site#libreboot.srht.site/img#g' \
-i \
$(git ls-files | xargs grep "av\.libreboot\.srht\.site" | sed 's/:.*//' | sort -u)

The URL was changed with the following command:
$ sed 's#libreboot.org#libreboot.srht.site#g' \
-i \
$(git ls-files | xargs grep "libreboot\.org" | sed 's/:.*//' | sort -u)
If the website is moved again in the future we will need to change the
URL again in the same way.

i do not intend to re-add them. these guides should be on the wiki pages of
each project website e.g. parabola wiki
it's out of scope for libreboot. the debian guide will remain, for now, but as
soon as it becomes broken or no longer fit for purpose, it will simply be
deleted. ideally, the pages on docs/gnulinux/ should not be distro-specific
