Hi,
While it might make sense for a very few packages, it doesn't for 99% of them (please please please prove me wrong).
Well, there already is a .../SL-10.1/inst-source/suse/i686/ directory
with a few i686-optimized packages (additionally to the i586 ones).
Extending the list of packages should be easy I think ;)
So maybe we could just ship both i586 and i686 versions for packages
which are cpu-bound and where it really makes a difference? lame is a
bad example as it wouldn't end up on the media anyway due to legal
reasons. But we maybe could do it for stuff like povray (not having it
benchmarked though).
cheers,
Gerd
