I don't get it. I certainly prefer a working package on all supported platforms, even if it runs slower on some of them. We would do the same on other platforms if we would detect a package built with, e.g. -msse2 Matthias -- QT on armel is built with NEON by default https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664431 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to qt4-x11 in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
