    == Summary ==
    Transition IBM 64-bit POWER LE systems to the new 128-bit IEEE long
    double ABI.

    == Detailed Description ==
    IBM has designed a new long double ABI that adheres to the 128-bit
    IEEE format. This format is more standard than the existing AIX
    double-double or IBM long double (2 grouped 64-bit doubles) which has
    discontinuous mantissas and is difficult for developers to use. In
    Fedora 29 the plan is to switch to the new ABI for long double, while


In Fedora 29 or Fedora 30?

Fedora 30. This change was postponed from Fedora 30, and this reference was left in by accident.

Thanks,
Florian
