Public bug reported:
The build of gretl 1.9.14-2 for i386 contains AVX instructions and so will not
run on
computers that don't support AVX ("Illegal instruction"). This includes all CPUs
from prior to 2011.
The configure script for gretl offers an option to disable AVX, and this should
be
used when building the package for Ubuntu. The appropriate flag is
--disable-avx
** Affects: gretl (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Patch added: "Fixes the Debian "rules" file for gretl build"
