For the most part, its not (yet) necessary. We throttled back the definition of i686 from "i686 + cmov + sse2" or some such to just "i686 + cmov", so there are very few systems that would be served by an i586 secondary arch right now. i.e., Athlon XP, Pentium III, etc., which *would* have been relegated to i586, are still going to be supported by i686, and we've talked about adding a cmov trap-and-emu function to keep supporting the few i686 procs w/o cmov, which really leaves only the original Pentium series that would benefit from an i586 secondary arch. At least, that's my vague recollection of it all right now... :) -- Jarod Wilson jarod@xxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
