I think this needs to be fixed in QEMU source. The `configure_file()`
action needs both an absolute path for `configuration` (to substitute
into the descriptor files) _and_ a relative path for use with the
`install_dir` keyword argument.

Title:
Installed firmware descriptor files contain (invalid) relative paths
Status in QEMU:
New
Bug description:
After building and installing QEMU, the resulting installed firmware
descriptor files contain relative paths for their `mapping.filename`
properties. These relative paths will not be accepted as valid by
tools like `virt-install`, resulting in the inability to configure new
VMs which reference these firmware descriptors.
# QEMU version
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -version
QEMU emulator version 5.2.0
(I've also reproduced the issue with QEMU built from Git master @
v5.2.0-1300-g0e32462630, see next comment.)
# OS version
Void Linux x86_64 (glibc)
Steps to reproduce (with results on my system):
# Verify the symptom
$ virt-install --boot firmware=efi --disk none --memory 2048
Using default --name vm4
WARNING No operating system detected, VM performance may suffer. Specify an
OS with --os-variant for optimal results.
Starting install...
ERROR Failed to open file 'share/qemu/edk2-i386-vars.fd': No such file or
directory
Domain installation does not appear to have been successful.
If it was, you can restart your domain by running:
virsh --connect qemu:///session start vm4
otherwise, please restart your installation.
# Verify most likely cause
$ grep filename /usr/share/qemu/firmware/*i386*.json
