Package: sse2-support
Version: 15
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
sse2-support package fails to detect SSE2 on VIA Eden Eshter CPU, which
leads to inability to install task-lxqt-desktop on WYSE C10LE machine.
The installation used to work fine on Debian 11, as far as I remember.
This seem to be a known bug of __builtin_cpu_supports() function which
was closed as WONTFIX in gcc bug tracker.
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=100758
gcc developer Martin Liška proposed using cpuid bit detection method to
the author. Apparently, __builtin_cpu_supports() is unreliable.
