I am not an Arch Linux user, so -- while I am very fond of the Arch Linux documentation! -- I would prefer if Arch Linux users talked to their packagers. Gerd's build script is publicly available, of course: either from the src.rpm under <https://www.kraxel.org/repos/jenkins/edk2/>, or directly from git: <https://www.kraxel.org/cgit/jenkins/edk2/tree/edk2.git.spec>. So... I cannot say if ArchLinux actually ships the split files, and just the above example was incorrect, *or* if ArchLinux doesn't even ship the split files. In the ArchLinux wiki, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF#Complete_example_for_QEMU_.28CLI-based.29_without_libvirtd I saw pathnames like /usr/share/ovmf/x64/ovmf_code_x64.bin /usr/share/ovmf/x64/ovmf_vars_x64.bin hence I assumed that ArchLinux was shipping the split files (and that the example near the top was incorrect). I may have been wrong -- I don't use Arch and don't know what Arch package provides what files.
