[Discord] <pookyfan> I went back to old Armbian buld version in order to find root cause of a regression in custom build I am working on. Since I had few months break from this project, I decided to pull newest version of Armbian build framework and then the regression started to be observable in my build. That's why I'm trying to eliminate potential causes, and now it's Armbian framework update on target.
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <pookyfan> was able to checkout on commit I used to be working earlier and not without some bumps, but most of the build goes smoothly, until it fails on packages MD5 checks:

[Discord] <pookyfan> Maybe just adding ` --allow-downgrades` to that script will fix it

[Discord] <pookyfan> let's see

[Discord] <pookyfan> it worked, nice - thanks for tip with that cherry pick, that did the trick for my original problem

[Discord] <pookyfan> Ok, it seems that the regression I mentioned earlier was indeed somehow caused by upgrade of Armbian build framework. Now, before I start doing bisection, maybe if I describe what exactly my problem is, then I might be able to find real root cause sooner

[Discord] <pookyfan> so I'm working on image for Allwinner A33 based tablet with ESP 8089 wifi chip. I copied it from Rockchip's patches to Armbian patches, applied it and enabled driver in kernel config, and it works just fine - it's being picked up by kernel with ESP 8089 module and doesn't even need to be specified in DTS/DTO with exact match for the driver. That is - it was working until I update <clipped message>

[Discord] <pookyfan> d Armbian build framework. Now, on the same kernel version (current, 6.6) it doesn't work anymore, it looks like it doesn't even appear as a device in /`sys/classes/...`, like there is no driver for it and such

[Discord] <pookyfan> it also doesn't work on edge kernel, like I said, what cause the regression seems to be something in Armbian build framework, not kernel itself

[Discord] <pookyfan> Wait, maybe it's kernel issue after all, I just noticed that although I'm building (on older Armbian build) the same kernel (current, 6.6), the exact version is different (older) than one built with up-to-date Armbian
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <pookyfan> how can I force exact kernel version for current/edge builds?
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <pookyfan> ok I see it's where major and minor kernel are also set, cool
<DC-IRC>
[Discord] <pookyfan> no it looks like back then there wasn't any specific patch version forced for kernel at all so seems my working image built with old Armbian contains latest current kernel (6.6.54) and still has working wifi
