Fedora used to have the x86 repo for old hardware, and the x86_64 repo
for new hardware. Now that the tech cursor moved enough x86 kernels
are
being retired, there would be nothing wrong in moving this functional
split at another technical level.
The problem with that is getting someone to do the work. The whole
reason that the i686 kernel was retired was due to people not stepping
up to do the maintenance of the kernel, and the kernel alone.
I’m assuming (perhaps wrongly) that the people proposing the change
would be ready to maintain the new hardware arch, and shake out the bugs
associated with the new compiler flags. Because the bulk of us seem
stuck with older hardware for now.
