Hi Alan, > It depends which 486 variant, and its only rpm thata affected. Plus db4 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=91933). But indeed nothing else that I am aware of. Maybe these packages should be tagged i686 for this reason. Calling them i386 gives the wrong impression of compatibility. This way i386 users can easily tell these are packages that need to be patched. > More relevantly, dropping 486 compatibility buys you nothing.

Still leaves the question if we need to bump to i486. Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research
