MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for linux-x32 [2]:

Please delete libx32- and -x32 AUR packages:

This has been recently orphaned. There is zero official or community
support or demand for niche X32 ABI architecture on Arch or AUR.

 • There are only a few x32 packages on AUR, all of which have been
abandoned 6 year ago or more. They had 1 owner who wrote an email
reply to me agreeing that these can be deleted, not needed anymore.
Whoever wants to use special X32 ABI architecture would be able to use
Debian x32 or build Gentoo from scratch for the x32 ABI, or find some
IoT-specific disro for it.
