Can we just stop building for i686 in Fedora in general, instead of burning
maintainer time figuring out deps problems like this... ? What's the
blocker and how much longer do we have to put up with its burden in Fedora ?The blocker is someone making a Change Request and then going to the Fedora 43 CR meetings with FESCO :). I think the only blocker has been Steam games.Steam is mostly a solved problem with the Steam Flatpak on Flathub. ("But boohoo, I want to use the RPM" - I don't care. Valve should make a 64-bit compatible client already, it's 2025.)
AFAIU Steam doesn't need qemu , I use steam package from RPMFusion , I installed it in a chromebook (with intel CPU), I checked and I don't have any qemu package installed
The only remaining blocker from official Fedora repos, is - to my knowledge - wine, which pulls in 32-bit multilib libraries on x86_64.With work progressing in Wine upstream to make it possible to run 32-bit Wine programs with only 64-bit Linux userspace, that will go away soon (hopefully).I had planned to file a change proposal for dropping i686 architecture support entirely as soon as that is possible.FabioWith regards,
Daniel
