    Description

      The instructions provided here https://doc.qt.io/Boot2Qt/b2qt-qsg-aws.html#uploading-boot-to-qt-ami-from-qbsp were being followed, and it seems that the installed files for version 6.8.1-20241128180549 are slightly incorrect. In the installed images folder, the Yocto build process creates symlinks and real files, but only the real files were installed under the symlink names. Normally, this would not pose an issue; however, one of the files is a JSON file describing the filename of the VHD filesystem image, and this file contains the original filename, not the symlink name. This discrepancy causes problems when running the create-ec2-ami.sh script, as it fails to locate the VHD file for upload. Building the full Yocto image revealed this issue. The complete Yocto build produces b2qt-embedded-qt6-image-aws-ec2-arm64.rootfs.wic.vhd, which is a symlink to b2qt-embedded-qt6-image-aws-ec2-arm64.rootfs-20250123160727.wic.vhd. The installed images, however, only include the file b2qt-embedded-qt6-image-aws-ec2-arm64.rootfs.wic.vhd, while the b2qt-embedded-qt6-image-aws-ec2-arm64.rootfs.testdata.json file references b2qt-embedded-qt6-image-aws-ec2-arm64.rootfs-20241128180549, which does not exist.
