356 Occasionally, stable releases such as this one may contain minor (or critical)
357 issues that went unnoticed during testing. When this occurs, critical or
358 otherwise desirable fixes are implemented, while not fundamentally altering
359 the substance of the original release.
360
361 When this occurs, the ROM image and source code archives are entirely re-built,
362 and re-uploaded, replacing the old one. Patch files are provided alongside the
363 updated source archive, so that you can revert (from it) back to the older
364 revisions if you wish; by doing this, you can therefore also re-create the
365 original release archive, for reference.

... ... which manifested during S3 resume, but that bug never made it into the release
412 423 because it was fixed *before* the initial release of Libreboot 20241206. because it was fixed *before* the initial release of Libreboot 20241206.

414 425 The ROM images were all re-uploaded, compiled from the rev3 tarball, because it was discovered that the rev2 tarballs had a GRUB built showing the old Libreboot 20241008 version number; the actual code in GRUB matched the code for 20241206, but it was a cached GRUB build from just before updating the version number for release. This is because the rev2 ROM image tarballs were done manually, to avoid a full re-build of every target in lbmk. To avoid all doubt, all ROM images have been re-compiled with the version number corrected, from the rev3 tag.

427 Revision 4
428 ----------
429
430 All current ROM/src archives in this release match changes up to rev4.
431
432 Rev4 fixed a bug: GRUB was not allowing the background image to be changed,
433 despite rules in `grub.cfg` that made one in CBFS load before memdisk. This fix
434 was implemented by no longer inserting background images into GRUB's memdisk,
435 instead inserting them into CBFS.
436
437 This way, you can remove what's in CBFS and replace it with your own, if that's
438 what you want to do.
439
440 To celebrate this fix, the default background logo was also changed. The old
441 one was a white silhouette of the Libreboot logo, whereas the new one is of
442 the same shape but shoes a rainbow-coloured gradient instead of all-white. This
443 rainbow logo was also used in U-Boot on the very initial Libreboot 20241206
444 release, and it's also used for the main website logo at the time of this
445 revision.
446
447 Basically, this fix was done as an excuse just to do another revision update,
448 to change the logo! The actual bug was actually quite minor and irrelevant.
