I don't understand any of this... "configuration blob"? This is new to me.

Well, zcu102 may have worked for a while, but now this is totally broken in
meta-xilinx.

If you were able to make things work with this check for >= 0.3, then you must
have it. Can you make it unofficially available somewhere? Or do we need some
sort of early-access license to access it. Because right now, as I said, this is
totally unusable.

Problem with this is that FSBL requires Vivado and the licensing. These tools
don't integrate well in a CI build environment. Since they don't change often,
I'll probably have to go down that road for now. Can I get away with just
building FSBL (boot.bin) from the Vivado tools, integrate this file as a binary
asset in my sdcard, then jump to the u-boot.img built using yocto and
meta-xilinx?

Thanks for your help guys. Hopefully we can improve the support in meta-xilinx
over time!
