Package: blender Version: 2.71+dfsg1-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
could Blender be changed to check if it is running on a supported CPU and fail with a nicely informative error message? On my PC blender is terminated on startup with: Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction. Running in gdb I get this backtrace: (gdb) bt #0 0x09015ecd in RNA_def_property_range () #1 0x0901a304 in RNA_def_int () #2 0x084bce4c in ??
