|
Build i686 optimized packages. Or, have qa to make proper tests to ensure we have a kernel that boots on pre i686 as well as kde et all works (hint amd geode). |
TPG |
|
NO GO for this feature for 2014.0
|
ix86_64
Suggestion

Status
|
X32 could be an option. Otherwise nothing needs to be changed for x86_64, most important bits are already in glibc with runtime optimized functions based on cpu features. |
pcpa |
|
NO GO for this feature for 2014.0
|
By default enable compiling programs with -msse, -msse2, -msse3, -march=, -mfpmath=sse (note that this will break pre-2005 hardware... But I presume people on that can just use the 32 bit version |
TPG |

Suggestion

Status
|
uClibc status ? Either we move on with it or remove support. Possibly replace with musl, it is slightly smaller, significantly faster, and has some binary compatibility with glibc, so should be less of a headache |
TPG/bero(musl) |

Java
Suggestion
|
Author(s)

Responsible
|
Status
|
Obsolete java-1.6.0-openjdk and recreate java stack based on Fedora java stack. |
pcpa |
|
java stack is close to useless, only base packages are supposed to work, at least are usable to bootstrap a full java stack
|
Do the above without obsoleting java-1.6.0-openjdk, 1.6.0 is vital for Android developers until at least Android 4.5 is out |
