I'm not sure if that's such a good assumption. For example, We stick to
32bit at work since some of the special purpose hardware we use don't
have drivers for 64bit.
So, to use KDE 4.10 & qt 4.8.x on el6 32bit, do I need to build all rpms
myself to avoid this atom business? The problem is it affects every qt
based compilation on the machine!
The entire distribution is built using these same flags. Sounds like
you'd rather be using gentoo?
