makepkg creates x86_64 packages instead of i686

Hi,

I installed arch linux as 32bit version on my 64bit machine. I changed the architecture parameter in /etc/pacman.conf to i686 and everything works like a charm.
However, makepkg creates a x86_64 instead of i686. Thus, pacman complains when I try install the package.
My makepkg.conf looks like the following:

 
CARCH="i686"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"

#-- Exclusive: will only run on i686
# -march (or -mcpu) builds exclusively for an architecture
# -mtune optimizes for an architecture, but builds for whole processor family
CFLAGS="-march=i686 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="-march=i686 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe"
LDFLAGS="-Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed"
#-- Make Flags: change this for DistCC/SMP systems
#MAKEFLAGS="-j2"

How can I create the correct package?

Regards
Sven

What does

uname -a

say?

Does this happen with multiple packages or just one?

grub-gfx caused the problem.

I also tried it with libpng12. Interestingly, this works!

PKGBUILD

has

 DESTARCH="x86_64"

Could that be the problem?

Yes it is...

  if [ "$DESTARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then
    # fool makepkg into building a x86_64 package
    export CARCH="x86_64"
  fi

Thanks for the help!
I replaced x86_64 with i686 and int works.
I will drop a note at aur.
