a/grub-2.14-x86_64-2.txz: Rebuilt. Reverted two upstream commits to fix grub-install with legacy BIOS: configure: Check linker for --image-base support. configure: Print a more helpful error if autoconf-archive is not installed. Thanks to Petri Kaukasoina. Even with these reverts GRUB has grown in size, and the trick it uses to hide in the post MBR gap is a bit brittle. I'm getting this error on my only MBR/BIOS machine that's still in use here: grub-install: warning: You have a short MBR gap and use advanced config. Please increase post-MBR gap.. grub-install: warning: grub-core/partmap/msdos.c:pc_partition_map_embed:406:your core.img is unusually large. It won't fit in the embedding area. grub-install: error: embedding is not possible, but this is required for cross-disk install. With grub-2.12, grub-install worked fine on this machine. Clearly LILO won't be going anywhere. :-) l/python-markdown-3.10.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. l/python-wheel-0.46.3-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. l/sof-firmware-2025.12.1-noarch-1.txz: Upgraded. n/netatalk-4.4.1-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded.
