Hi, I saw your post; I just did not want to go off-topic right away. :-) At least as long as I am the only contributor I hesitate to give up on how the infrastructure is set up. It seems to be much more complex to do this on "official" servers. I like being able to switch things around outside of j

I just updated the server to also accept x86_64 feature levels, ARM and even i686. There is a new version of pkgstats (>= 3.1.0; currently in [testing]) which is able to detect feature levels. ARM support is pretty early, but x86_64 should be fine (using Intel's cpuid library). If you like to chec

Hi Pierre, I think at this point we should actually convert the "pet project" into an real official service hosted under the archlinux.org hood :) cheers, Levente OpenPGP_signature Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Hi all, while reading Allan's RFC about increasing Arch's CPU requirements(*) I had the idea to start tracking the different x86_64 architecture level using pkgstats. I am sure whether to drop support for old CPUs is not a matter of "if" but "when"; similar as it was with i686. Therefore it should
