Mozilla discontinued 32-bit (x86) Linux builds of geckodriver starting in v0.37.0 (aligned with Firefox 145 dropping 32-bit x86 Linux), so the download URL now returns a 404. This breaks the
can_install_geckodrivertest on 32-bit Linux, as reported by an Alpine Linux packager running the full test suite across their arch matrix.32-bit x86 Linux is effectively dead for desktop/server use, and running headless Firefox wasm tests on it is a vanishingly rare intersection, so rather than pin to an old geckodriver or add a self-build path, this simply drops the platform:
