The repo is not needed any more, because the Google Cloud SDK is not
installed in the images by default. If anyone wants to install the SDK,
they can add the appropriate repo definition.
The Google SDK ships pre-compiled binaries. It is undesirable to install
it by default in `gce` and `gce-rhui` in its current shape. Also not
installing it does not anyhow affect the RHEL integration as the guest
OS in GCP.
Define the distribution strings for RHEL 8.5 in distro/rhel86 and add
constructors. Remove the old 8.5 from the distro registry and use the
new constructors.
Composer can now build RHEL 8.5 image-installer on aarch64, which wasn't
supported before.
RHEL 8.5 manifests have changed to minimise the differences from 8.6.
Some changes are fixes made in 8.6 but never backported to 8.5 because
of our (older) policy of not changing definitions after the release of a
distro.
Other changes are non-functional (e.g., stage or package order).
See the list below for the source of each change.
Manifest changes:
- Stage order changed for org.osbuild.systemd-logind and
org.osbuild.rhsm.
- org.osbuild.grub2 options: config.default = "saved"
Reverted 111cd8871f
- Partition sizes: RHEL 8.5 had extra arbitrarily sized padding for the
header. Now all partitions are sized to fit headers exactly.
Original change at b7abef54e8.
- SELinux set to permissive in Anaconda. This was changed in RHEL 8.6
and 9.0 but never backported to 8.5.
See a7fbe916b7.
- Installer isolevel set to 3. Like above, this was changed in
8.6 and 9.0.
Original change at d8d161480e.
- Specify a remote for edge deployments.
Original change at b18b4e80a0.
Whenever we create a new mountpoint due to a user customization,
ensure the layout uses LVM, i.e. convert plain layouts to it, if
needed. This does not apply to rpm-ostree based systems.
Add "lvm2" to the build pipeline and thus generate new manifests
and image infos.
Adjust the existing tests that assumed we can not create more
than 4 partitions on mbr layouts, since that is now not true
anymore.
This is a port from rhel86, commit 63aa155
The change in osPipeline() is required now to fix the Prefix for the
bootloader specification when LVM is used. The unspecified Prefix, which
was previously used for all cases, defaults to "/boot". When the layout
is converted to LVM, a boot partition is created and the BLS Prefix
should be set to "".
In the case where we don't have a partition table, the BLS stage is not
needed, but it was done unconditionally before, so keep the default
image definitions unchanged.

Blueprint package set is now depsolved together with the OS package set
in a chain. The result is stored in the package specs sets under the OS
package set name.
In reality, the code was able to handle a `nil` package specs to be
passed to pipelines, however some parts were looking for the kernel
version in the blueprint package specs, which would be a bug.
Regenerated affected image test cases.
Add the `gce` image type intended for Google Compute Engine. The image
is BYOS - bring your own subscription and requires registering in order
to access Red Hat content.
