OpenCorePkg upgrade

[serdeliuk]

Hello,
I started to try to upgrade to latest OpenCorePkg is anyone else working on this?
I wonder if this is not already done and in pending to be released.

I already saw different kind of issues as for example lodepng library has 3 different versions, one in OC, one in rEFIt and other one in theme manager....

Best regards,

Marc

I am preparing a new fork/test-branch and later a pull request, let hope that i will have time tomorrow :)

I re-upgraded the OpenCore to the latest Clover. anyone who want that is here now. Clover 5139 (master) with OC 0.6.5 that allow to boot any OS with SecureBootModel enabled. (you need to enable misc in main.cpp then create the misc section in config-oc.plist)

Why not 0.7.3 ?

Why not 0.7.3 ?

Since 0.6.6 they changed a lot, moved files, renamed a lot, and even removed others, 0.6.5 was the max version upgrade with minimum effort. I will try to progressively upgragrade, but will be harder with each version and i do not have required time.

Good, twelve is a good number...
