There is no either right or wrong stance here. We are discussing possible alternatives to
"just drop it" attitude.
What work should be done? Please, be more specific. Right now I'm running a i686
userland and it works. If I would be able to build the whole repository myself I'm
pretty sure that most things will still work. If it won't work I might try to fix it
and contribute patches back. But without that repository I can't even try it in the
first place.
You are just pushing me and others away, so we should go use other distributions which
provide ready to run builds. And I'm not talking about i686 *kernel* anywhere. We are
talking about *userland* only. I'm running 64-bit CPU all along, but I have limited
memory. Others could use laptops with restricted memory which would be a performance hit
if they start using x86_64 userland.
You are not providing any alternative but starting to build everything ourselves or stop
using Fedora and move elsewhere.
