Hmm.. AFAIR we need `grub-x86_64-efi` on `i686` also, but when it becomes an `x86_64` instead of a `noarch` package, you won't be able to manually add it to the `i686-repodata` any longer. I don't know whether it is wrong in the first place to expect `grub-x86_64-efi` being available for `i686`, though.

> It may be required for the case when you want to boot an i686 ISO image on x86_64 UEFI hardware!?
I don't think so, that _should_ be possible with 32bit GRUB. I will try to build an ISO with only 32bit grub, tho.
> We cannot cross compile or assemble from i686 to x86_64, or do we?
I think we can, the cross toolchain should be there. No idea how easy it will be to plug it in, though.

If possible I'd like to make GRUB stuff happen at once. It's a fragile package, no need to update it multiple times.

? how is this supposed to work in the first place? even in the case where `grub-x86_64-efi` is `noarch`, it won't be added into `i686` index either way, so why does it matter

i just checked and it is present in the `i686-repodata`, which sounds like something is terribly broken in our system and we've somehow been relying on it all along

The x86_64 and the i686 images include 32bit and 64bit GRUB for EFI. So you (currently) need to have 64bit GRUB in the i686 repo.

Makes it somewhat impossible to boot i686 images on x86_64 systems using EFI. If you can fallback to BIOS or enter compat mode, it still works.

Oh, unfortunate. Is it possible to build x86_64-efi for i686? If not, maybe that's not something we should support at all, i686 on x86_64 is not a common thing and if someone has an isolated usecase for that using the BIOS instead of UEFI is probably the better bet anyway.

That's mostly what @q66 argued. I would still like to support that specific use case, but I'm not eager to do the work for it. I think we can test if that support is necessary once we release new ISOs and people start complaining (or not) about it not working for them.

How about we just drop noarch then for now and figure out if we need to put the work in later.

Subject: [PATCH] grub: remove noarch, build manpages.
This commit will make it so the i686 repository won't have
grub-x86_64-efi available, which is something that void-mklive depended
on. Seeing as the use case where that's necessary is rare (booting i686
ISOs on x86_64 machines using EFI), we are going to stop supporting it
for now. If necessary, this change can be revisited in order to allow
building grub-x86_64-efi for i686.
Building manpages requires help2man.

Updated commit message.
I think we should fix void-mklive first, and then I can refer to the change in it in the commit message as well.
