But shouldn't the athlon arch be compatible with 386?
In which case shouldn't the packages also allow athlon?
Excuse my total ignorance on this... If in fact, the packages in
question will not work correctly on athlon, and fedora is unwilling to
support athlon, then I can see how this is not a bug.
In fact the athlon arch is not compatible with i386, however i386 IS
compatible with athlon. IE a build which is optimized for athlon can
actually contain features that i386 cannot support, but the reverse should
not be true.
