What exactly is the 'problem' in dbscripts? Is it pertaining to not
displaying the split packages when some of the split ones are 'any'
arch? Anyway its a minor issue and can be solved by a simple edit of
replacing arch=('any') by arch=('i686' 'x86_64'). But for the sake of
this, the actual 'any' package have to be rebuilt for each arch which
is a waste of time and leads to duplication of data.
I guess for sake of dbscripts compatibility, we can leave
grub2-common, grub2-bios and grub2-efi-i386 as i686 and x86_64
packages. Since grub2-efi-x86_64 exists in a separate PKGBUILD i see
no reason not to have it as 'any' arch except for the sake of
uniformity with the other grub2 packages. The final decision regading
this rests with Ronald.
