I don’t get it? Are you upset that business-oriented distros aren’t building for hardware that’s no longer being built?
Surprised Pikachu.
Their customers are businesses who are almost always running modern hardware. There’s no significant reason to expect them to compile i386 binaries in 2026, because no enterprise customer is using i386…largely because there’s no good reason to, when more capable processors that consume less power are more readily available.
Same thing for x86-64.
Nothing stopping you from compiling from source tho.

Where has anyone except you talked about any expectation to compile for i386? Go away.
