[Bug 2057776] Re: ubuntu-cpc project remove armhf vm images until grub2 armhf fixes in place

[John Chittum]

** Description changed:

  grub-efi-arm and grub-efi-arm-bin are not currently installable for
  armhf images. This leads  to build failures for  in the disk-image-
  uefi.binary in the ubuntu-cpc image.
  
  the future of UEFI booting armhf cloud images is currently in question,
  with possibilities including:
  
  1. removing VM images entirely for armhf (due to lack of hardware support)
  2. keeping a Bios booting VM available for armhf (need to check booting on appropriate devices, such as an older Raspberry Pi)
  3. fixing grub-efi-arm and grub-efi-arm-bin and re-enabling UEFI booting armhf cloud images.
  
- 
- In the short term, removing armhf from the list of supported architectures results in skipping the hook.
