That's only your (mis)interpretation of what is happening. OpenSUSE is not planning to abandon all "current i586 openSUSE users".
Then I have certainly misunderstood something completely.
Only those who insist on staying with 32-bit distribution so strongly that they would rather change the distribution than upgrade to a 64-bit system.
You're playing with words. The end effect is the same. AFAICT, with openSUSE Leap, openSUSE i586 users have only two options - stop using i586 or change distro.
.... if really no one tries to avoid such a situation until the end. I believe we can provide a more user-friendlier soft-landing runway, e.g. by providing a Ports image or such. It would need significant effort, but certainly doable.
I'm not so sure it's significant effort - at the end we build i586 and we even include it in staging, we just don't run any tests on it and we do not generate an image.
Stephan, that sounds quite promising - well, it sounds like that's all we would need? For my purposes, I don't need any images, just the repos. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (19.8°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
