What about the dependent packages?

$ repoquery --repo=rawhide{,-source} --whatrequires glusterfs-devel
glusterfs-api-devel-0:6.4-3.fc31.i686
glusterfs-api-devel-0:6.4-3.fc31.x86_64
libvirt-0:5.5.0-2.fc31.src
qemu-2:4.1.0-0.1.rc2.fc31.src
samba-2:4.10.6-0.fc31.2.src
uwsgi-0:2.0.18-2.fc31.src

Er, what about them?  AIUI, there isn't going to be a i686 Fedora  in F31 and beyond. That just leaves armv7hl. Is anyone really running libvirt, qemu, or storage on such platforms? If they are,  the number must be vanishingly small. (My own experience with virt on ARM makes me believe that the that the number must be truly microscopic.) Of those that are, is there a reason they can't keep running glusterfs-7 on F30 or F31 indefinitely if they really need 32-bit gluster?

$ repoquery --repo=rawhide{,-source} --whatrequires glusterfs-api-devel
gluster-block-0:0.4-4.fc31.src
glusterfs-coreutils-0:0.3.1-2.fc31.src
libvirt-0:5.5.0-2.fc31.src
nfs-ganesha-0:2.8.2-3.fc31.src
qemu-2:4.1.0-0.1.rc2.fc31.src
samba-2:4.10.6-0.fc31.2.src
scsi-target-utils-0:1.0.70-9.fc31.src
tcmu-runner-0:1.1.3-2.fc26.src
uwsgi-0:2.0.18-2.fc31.src

tcmu-runner and scsi-target-utils is only for gluster-block, which, by extension should also drop 32-bit at the same time. Likewise, glusterfs-coreutils should also drop 32-bit support.

That only leaves ganesha and samba, which can drop their FSAL_GLUSTER and VFS_GLUSTER plug-ins on 32-bit. Something they have already had to do for Ceph-14 in Fedora 30.
