Unfortunately at this time we don't support x86_64. I don't have enough infrastructure for a 64bit build system to produce the 64bit packages. Also, I'm not confident that there are enough x86_64 users willing to test and QA x86_64 packages. That said, the SRPMS can be rebuilt if you're inclined to do so. > Also, please mention on > http://www.fedoralegacy.org/ what the status of the transition is. > That way, users could know whether this is in the works or if it has > fallen through the cracks. > > Also, when the Fedora Project announced the EOL of FC2, I switched > immediately over to the Legacy repo, which it turned out was not yet > ready.
