  • Priority changed from bug to freedom issue
  • Status changed from unconfirmed to confirmed

it is not actually an installer - it is an image builder - it is not needed - 'parabola-vmbootstrap' does the same

also related to this package:
  • extra/archboot-arm 2022.04-38
    Advanced, modular arch boot/install image creation utility with aarch64 depends
  • extra/archboot-bootloader 20220329-1
    EFI bootloaders for archboot images
  • extra/archboot-qemu-aarch64 6.2.0-2
    Static qemu helper for aarch64 iso building

also 'archboot' which is already blacklisted (with no BR reference) - using this as blacklist reference for all of them

the 'archboot' blacklist entry is currently:

requires isdn4k-utils (for which there is a free replacement that is unpackaged)

i just deleted that - there is no point is ever rescuing this package
