Just to mention it:
We also seem to be having problems with packages using -maes.
I am not 100% sure yet, but I recently have been hit by fc26 updates
(nspr*), which appear to work on Atoms (w/ aes) but broke on original
Intel i686 (w/o aes).
why not aim for maximum compatibility?
Well, for me, it would
be sufficient if Fedora >= 26 would support the
i686 like Fedora < 26 did. I am not much interested in i586s or VIA
chipsets.
