Description Michel Normand 2020-02-19 13:44:04 UTC
TW ppc64 net install failing as missing grub2-powerpc-ieee1275 = 2.04-3.1
as reported in openQA for TW 20200218 (url ref in "Observation" below)

Because grub2 package not built for ppc64 but for ppc64le, so grub2-powerpc-ieee1275 noarch rpm is overwritten on repo with a version 2.04-4.1
https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/openSUSE:Factory:PowerPC/grub2/standard

grub2 not built for ppc64 because unresolvable:
"nothing provides gcc9-32bit needed by gcc-32bit"

I checked the gcc9 package and it built in OBS:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory:PowerPC/gcc9

I did a trial without this build required and build succeeded.
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:michel_mno:branches:Base:System/grub2

Do the grub2 package really need gcc-32bit for ppc64 ?
