Correct? I think Chris wanted to see NEON as standard on armv7. I already voiced my disagreement to that in an earlier post. Since NEON packages can be used on any hardfp platform that supports NEON, I think NEON enabling should be handled on a package-by-package basis. It seems like a sounder trade-off for the sake of "rpmbuild --rebuild" with a different .rpmrc file.
