fix(release): force-disable the python extension via HAS_SWIG/HAS_PYT… …HON_CONFIG Removing swig from the dependency list didn't work either: swig, like python3-config, is preinstalled on GitHub's ubuntu-latest runners independent of anything this workflow installs -- confirmed via the actual failed run's log (SWIG proot_wrap.c, CC extension/python/*.o both still ran). Stop trying to make the tools unavailable and just override the Makefile's own detection variables on the command line instead, which take precedence over the makefile's :=. Needs applying to both make invocations: the first one generates build.h, which bakes in HAVE_PYTHON_EXTENSION from HAS_SWIG/HAS_PYTHON_CONFIG at that point, independent of what the second invocation's OBJECTS list ends up containing -- verified this exact mismatch locally (cli/proot.o referencing python_callback with no object defining it) before fixing it, then reverified clean with swig and python3-config both actually present, matching the real runner.
Release v5.1.0
==============
New features
------------
+ Processes under PRoot now appear with their real names, that is,
they are not renamed "ld-linux.so" or "prooted-..." anymore:
before:
$ proot-v4.0.3 ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
7885 pts/11 00:00:00 bash
8131 pts/11 00:00:00 proot-v4.0.3
8132 pts/11 00:00:00 ld-2.17.so
$ proot-v5.0.0 ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
7885 pts/11 00:00:00 bash
7916 pts/11 00:00:00 proot-v5.0.0
7917 pts/11 00:00:00 prooted-7916-Jb
now:
$ proot-v5.1.0 ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
7885 pts/11 00:00:00 bash
8585 pts/11 00:00:00 proot-v5.1.0
8586 pts/11 00:00:00 ps
Fixes
-----
+ It is now possible to use GDB against multi-threaded programs under
PRoot x86_64 and x86.
+ It is possible to execute x86_64 programs from x86 programs again.
+ It is possible to use x86 ptrace-based programs (strace, gdb, ...)
under PRoot x86_64 again.
+ The loader is now built with the "build-id" linker option explicitly
disabled. This special section might interfere with loaded
programs.
+ The loader can now load relocatable objects that have a predefined
base address.

Release v5.0.0
==============
Highlight
---------
PRoot used to rely on the ELF loader embedded in the ELF interpreter
from the GNU libc. Sadly this latter suffers from many issues:
* programs that use constructors or destructors might crash: a typical
example is C++ programs.
* programs that rely on the "rpath" mechanism and that are invoked
through a symlink might not start: a typical example is the JVM on
Debian.
* programs that read processes command-line migth be confused because
initial argv[0] is replaced: typical examples are ps and top.
Moreover not all ELF interpreters provide this feature. For instance,
ELF interpreters shipped with Bionic (Android) and some versions of
the uClibC can't be used as ELF loaders. As a consequence it was not
possible to proot into a rootfs that uses such C library.
Now PRoot has its own loader, that means all the limitations above
doesn't exist anymore.
Fixes
-----
* Most bugs related to shebang support -- ie. "#!" at the beginning of
a program -- were fixed.
Command-line interface changes
------------------------------
* PRoot now starts a login shell when no command is specified; this
makes the shell read profile files from the guest rootfs, as
expected by some guest programs. To get the old behavior, launch
"/bin/sh" explicitly:
proot -r whatever /bin/sh
* The -R option now binds "/run" and "/var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket"
too. This is useful for guest programs that need to communicate
with host services.

Release v4.0.3
==============
+ Heap emulation is disabled when a "suspicious" call to brk(2) is
actually legit, as it might be the case when launching the very
first program.
+ The "-0" and "-S" options ("root" identity emulation) now fake
success of mknodat(2), as it was the case for mknod(2) previously.
This missing feature was revealed by the AArch64 port.
+ The "-k" option (kernel compatibility emulation) now works on
Linux/AArch64.
Thanks to Rémi Duraffort for the bug reports and for his LAVA testing
platform!
