As far as I know, MMX, SSE and SSE2 are mandatory part of the AMD64 instruction set, so they are not enabled randomly just because someone felt like it, but because they are be present on every x86_64 cpu.

In fact, all my systems have the limit increased to at least 65536, because the default isn't enough for some apps (Intellij Idea and readymedia comes to mind) Lukas

[arch-dev-public] dropping luxrender packages
Hi, I'd like to drop the luxrays, luxrender and luxblend25 packages from [community]. They have always required continuous attention to keep working which I can no longer provide with sufficient quality and right now the luxrender package is blocking the Python 3.7 rebuild. Moreover, the luxrender project has been abandoned and it was superseded by LuxCoreRender which has an active maintainer in AUR. If nobody steps in, I will remove them tomorrow. Lukas

Any thoughts about this? > If you think cdrecord would be better off in [extra] I'm OK with moving it and someone else taking over. If it stays in [community] I have no issue maintaining it either, it's a low-maintenance package. Lukas

[arch-dev-public] dropping pion
I would like to drop pion[1] from the [community]. The last upstream release was approximately two years ago and there's no package in the repository that depends on it. If nobody objects and takes over this package, I will delete it by the end of the week. [1] https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/pion/

Thank you, this helped a lot! It turned out I had a duplicate entry in .ssh/config which was still pointing to nymeria and which was taking precedence over the one I updated to point to repos.archlinux.org Lukas
