If the hw is capable of doing so (ie any "modern" cpu)
Means that anaconda and yum will examine /proc/cpuinfo for example and look for CPU flags and decide on that? And how will other updaters/installers as e.g. smart/apt handle that? Or will we get this checks directly into RPM?
why should anything but anaconda care? just upgrade what is installed to what is in the repos.
But we will keep the .i386.rpm for regular RPM packages anyway or are we "upgrading" all ENVRA namings to .i586.rpm or .i686.rpm?
Mass rebuild to go i686.rpm
Okay, so we will have then only *.i686.rpm for 32 bit Intel everywhere?
yes
