It doesn't make sense already in some contexts (containers) and this is a Fedora package for Fedora users, so I think anyone who would install it would have a kernel, and if it's a supported Fedora release it would be larger than 4.18.0. Dropping i686 kernels just means there's no more media/images for i686, but we keep building everything in case we need it for multilib. I would assume now you should keep building things, and if there's a change down the road to limit the scope of i686 more you could drop it when/if it makes sense then. kevin
