When the build host does not have a Python interpreter installed,
host-grub2 is failing to configure due to this missing interpreter.
Note that host-grub2 is the first package to fail because it is a
dependency of grub2. The grub2 target package has the same dependency
requirement.
The issue can be quickly reproduced on a host without Python with the
commands:
cat <<EOF >.config
BR2_aarch64=y
BR2_TARGET_GRUB2=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
EOF
make olddefconfig
make grub2
grub2 autotools configure.ac search for a Python interpreter since
upstream commit [1] 8b467844e "python: Use AM_PATH_PYTHON to determine
interpreter for gentpl.py", first included in grub v2.04 released
on 2019-07-04. For reference, grub2 has been updated to that version
in commit [2] ea7ec41c "boot/grub2: bump to verson 2.04".
This commit fixes the issue by adding the host-python3 dependency to
host-grub2 and grub2.
Fixes:
checking for a Python interpreter with version >= 2.6... none
configure: error: no suitable Python interpreter found

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
