Rebecca Cran db7e6291c0 BaseTools: Remove Python2/Python3 detection from toolset.bat
Since Python3 is now required, we can remove the checks for PYTHON3_ENABLE
and PYTHON3 and simplify the code in toolsetup.bat. Also, remove the
leftover from when we supported freezing Python code.

While here, fix a couple of typos and improve error messages.

  Note: New build instructions are available. It is recommended to start with

  the new instructions if learning how to build edk2 and/or BaseTools for the

  first time. This page is retained for reference.



New instructions: `Build Instructions`_



.. _`Build Instructions`: https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Build-Instructions



This directory contains the EDK II build tools and template files.

Templates are located in the Conf directory, while the tools executables for

Microsoft Windows Operating Systems are located in the Bin\\Win32 directory, other

directory contains tools source.



Build step to generate the binary tools

---------------------------------------



Windows/Visual Studio Notes

===========================



To build the BaseTools, you should run the standard vsvars32.bat script

from your preferred Visual Studio installation or you can run get_vsvars.bat

to use latest automatically detected version.



In addition to this, you should set the following environment variables::



 * EDK_TOOLS_PATH - Path to the BaseTools sub directory under the edk2 tree

 * BASE_TOOLS_PATH - The directory where the BaseTools source is located.

   (It is the same directory where this README.rst is located.)



After this, you can run the toolsetup.bat file, which is in the same

directory as this file.  It should setup the remainder of the environment,

and build the tools if necessary.



Unix-like operating systems

===========================



To build on Unix-like operating systems, you only need to type ``make`` in

the base directory of the project.



Ubuntu Notes

============



On Ubuntu, the following command should install all the necessary build

packages to build all the C BaseTools::



 sudo apt install build-essential uuid-dev
