And to further clarify: - This is an addition, not a switch -- the intention is to continue to support armv5tel in addition to armv7hl at this time -- Tegra and Marvell Kirkwood (including plug computer) devices which do not support armv7hl will continue to work with armv5tel. - The significant incompatibility is hardfp vs. softfp ABI (moreso than v7 vs. v5). -- Chris -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
