Just wanted to bring this to wider attention: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1592374 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1593411 https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/x...@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/YCBS5Y33YFBN2NPNPRUH6YJQFB5CVQ4F/
There is no kernel being built on i686. This breaks several assumptions: (1) Any package which depends on a kernel module by requiring ‘kmod(foo.ko)’ will no longer be installable on i686. If it BuildRequires the package it will FTBFS. Packages affected: - batctl - floppy-support - gfs2-utils - joystick-support - snapd - usbip - xl2tpd (2) Any package which depends on ‘kernel-devel’ or ‘kernel-devel-uname-r’ will no longer be installable. If it BuildRequires the package it will FTBFS. Packages affected (some of these may be from rpmfusion): - akmods - bcc-tools - dkms - systemtap-devel [this causes lots of packages to FTBFS] My real question: Is this going to be a long-term state of affairs? Should I start dropping dependencies / stop building stuff which needs a kernel on i686? Or should we wait it out? (I have no need for i686 nor any particular desire to actually investigate or fix the problems on this obsolete hardware.)
