Comment 85 for bug 1025555

The devs are severely overthinking this problem and are getting hung up on blog posts, opinions and other nonsense. The problem affects installing the 64 bit version of Ubuntu on 64 bit CPUs that only have 32 bit UEFI support and no legacy BIOS support. All that needs to happen is the grub install for 64 bit for UEFI needs to include both 32 bit and 64 bit binaries. The UEFI spec defines exactly how to have them coexist without issue. Why so much resistance when there's such a simple fix that impacts nothing else in any significant way?
