Description Christian Bricart 2024-01-11 15:49:58 UTC 
current ebuild sets $BUILD_FLAGS in src_compile() to include
  -D HTTP_BOOT_ENABLE
  -D TLS_ENABLE
for building with HTTP{S] support enabled.

however, these defines have been (long) renamed to
  NETWORK_HTTP_BOOT_ENABLE
and
  NETWORK_TLS_ENABLE
with https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/commit/631195044ff0 

thus the current builds of sys-firmware/edk2-ovmf (and the derived sys-firmware/edk2-ovmf-bin) lack HTTP[S] boot support.

this got also updated in the README (https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/commit/1631bb26ae991e530d3c96fe3161ea15144b358e)
